Re: RARA-AVIS: Re: Gash and other queries

To clarify my question, I already know that back issues of Armchair Detective are available through the University of Toronto's Robarts Library. Normally I would simply use McGill's interlibrary loan services, but since I no longer live in Montreal this is not really an option. I could still request a copy of the Bargainnier article from U of T but it would cost me $20 for seven photocopied pages. I thought I would ask all of you, being that you guys are the experts in this particular field, if there are any cheaper sources for this paper.

Thanks in advance! Harry
