It seems I need a paid membership to read the article... but now I'm curious. You'll have to give me the gist of it next time we chat.
Turns out it probably requires paid subscription if you're not looking at it on a university computer. My bad, for my non-local readers without access. Since I'm on a CU server the access magically happens...yay for a perk of a university job.
