I have it. But the information is not summarized in a table. You want me to read the whole article and summarize it!? I am a bit too busy with marking right now to do that.
 
Gosh, I really would prefer to read the 8 page article myself. If you could make a copy and mail it to me I’ll provide you the mailing address offline. The article pages were 164-172.

I would have to pay the postage of my own pocket but I am willing to do that. Write to me privately.

I have a subscription, and I downloaded the pdf file for the article. Sorry for not doing this before. Hope you see this before you scan.
