Hi Luke,

Great post. Will be writing something about the legal uses of SPRs in the near future.

Anyway, the link to the Grove and Meehl study doesn't seem to work for me. It says the file is damaged and cannot be repaired.

Fixed, thanks.

The copy on Meehl's posthumous website works for me. I found it with google scholar.

Ah yes, that seems to work. Thanks
