in thread Somewhat OT: Designing the Houdini After-death communication experiment.

An LWP::Simple script will fetch it. This is just the pages of the paper I cited, but should extend for the whole thing:

perl -MLWP::Simple -E"getstore qq[http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/cache/seri/ASPC./0047/600/0000${ +_}.000.gif], qq[bk${_}.gif] for 103..115"

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

    Your 1-liner failed for me for some reason. I used this:
    #!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; &get_web_files; sub get_web_files { use Fatal qw(open close); use LWP::Simple; use HTTP::Status; foreach my $num ( 89 .. 99 ) { my $baseURL = 'http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/cache/seri/ASP +C./0047/600/'; my $localfile = '00000'.$num . '.000.gif'; my $URL = $baseURL . $localfile; my $rc = mirror( $URL, $localfile ); warn status_message( $rc ) if is_error( $rc ); } } #http://articles.adsabs.harvard.edu/cache/seri/ASPC./0047/600/0000089. +000.gif
