A little help, please?

[Note: I've received all the papers but one, which I may be able to get directly from the author. Many thanks to everyone who sent in papers; hopefully I'll soon be able to share some good news about the end to which I'm using these resources.]

Many thanks to everyone who sent me the Ichnos paper this past weekend; I will be blogging about dinosaurs and dermestid beetles soon enough. At the moment, though, I have a somewhat bigger project that I'm working on (but that must remain under wraps for the moment) involving T.H. Huxley and his thoughts on the relationship between birds and dinosaurs. I already have a number of papers and books on the topic, but there are a few more (particularly by science historians and works held in the Lyell collection) that are beyond my reach. If anyone has access to any of these and might be able to send them to me (evogeek AT gmail DOT com) I would deeply appreciate it;

That certainly is a long list of papers, and I am certainly indebted to everyone who will take the time to assist me in collecting them for study. Hopefully I'll be able to provide a few more details about precisely why I need these papers, but even in terms of this blog they will certainly provide fodder for future posts. (I'll strike out the papers that I've received as they come in.)
