I learned to try different ways of circumventing the pay walls. I emailed one author with some questions though and he was able to provide me with a copy. Writing authors directly is a good way to get articles without paying but I didn’t figure this out right away.

Paywalls have to go

Not the strongest argument I've ever heard regarding paywalls: they have to go because 14 year olds can't figure out how to circumvent them right away.

Paywalls are stupidly expensive regardless.
