RayMolacha: This is not Aaron Swartz' work. Aaron Swarz was attempting 
to acquire non-free, current publications, and agreed to surrender the 
data he was in possession of. The publications in this torrent are the 
ones JSTOR wants to publish for free download, and are all written prior 
to 1923. These articles are "out-of-copyright".

JSTOR made these articles public in 2011.

Thank you for providing them all in an easy-to-download format, though.
