The Royal Society has put ALL of their papers online
Free of charge, but only for the next few months.

They go back to 1665. It's SO much fun to browse around.

3. It had to have cost a fortune to put all that online
It pains me to think how much it will cost when they put up the toll booth.

But in the meantime, it looks like a damn fine free research playground
