at some point, for what i am sure must be some kind of good reason, it become impossible to wget a file from the gutenberg.org website... instead, one is told that the project is intended for humans, not robots. this is devastating to researchers -- who just happen to be human beings who need systematic access via code. i would be willing to mount a mirror on my personal account at my i.s.p., to restore free and unhindered access to these books in the public domain... so if you'd "whitelist" me for one-time access to curl all of the files, i would appreciate it very much... thank you... -bowerbird
