So my claim here is that via what libraries are for, it should not be
difficult to find out what has existed over the last 40 years, nor
should it be difficult to get it. Compare this with other fields, the
relatively small amount of stuff done since 1960, the tremendous ease
of copying using xerox machines, video tapes, digital media and
communication. If you can't find it readily then there is something
wrong with the larger university processes re computer "science" (and
I suspect there may just be).
Can you say
- funding cuts
- skyrocketing journal prices
- a dollar that catches cold every time America sneezes?
I knew you could. The will is there, the skill is there, but the money ain't.
