I'm with you. I really really wanted to read (for example) "An observationally based energy balance for the Earth since 1950". However, all of the references to it that I can find are stuck behind paywalls, despite the paper having been authored primarily by NOAA scientists.
I fully support spending tax dollars on scientific research. That said, I think that the results of this particular bit of research have already been paid for.
I'm considering paying the nine bucks and putting it up for download. Any takers?
