I'm trying to figure this all out. I have had a group of about six (or so)
bound reprinted selected articles from old journals (all on paper). I think
I understand the nature of the NEW, just out today, CD of complete Journals
from 1979 to 1999.

Now what is this about the "old reprint kit CD"? I have never heard of such
a thing. Is that essentially the same thing as my bound paper reprinted
articles only on a CD format?

If so, are the pictures in the "old reprint kit CD" good enough to see - the
photocopied version is just blobs of mud. Can thoses articles also be
indexed somehow and searched on the computer? Thanks.
