Thanks...

If you have access.  Can anybody have access?  If so, could you tell
  me how I might get onto it.
If there is limited access (one must pay or be a registered medical
  practitioner for instance), then what I am suggesting is just to
  make a collection of the papers that are bandied about in the
  discussion on TECHDIVER (all these papers would of course conatin
  further references for the interested reader).

In the medical section?

If one is interested in a pecific paper, how does one get a copy?

True.

If there is no easy (read as free!!) access to MedLine, the I guess
  it looks like partial reinvention is inevitable.
