[I asked Marty about his 300 MB of project volume space on Andrew.] Date: Thu, 26 Oct 1995 05:59:33 -0400 (EDT) From: Martin Rimm To: "Declan B.

I asked you why they were deleted and what's in the remaining one. Why? I may replicate part of your study, possibly through the SURG program (applications due this week) or perhaps just through the URI. How difficult was it for you to get the 300 MB of proj vol space? Who did you have to ask? Why did they get rid of 250 MB of space? Often researchers make their software tools available to researchers who want to replicate their study. If you still have your PERL scripts, that would make my life easier. In fact, your study may be impossible to replicate properly without them, since you don't go into exhaustive detail regarding categories... The way I see it, if you feel your study's conclusions are valid, you should welcome those who could validate your results.

PERL/awk/sed/csh/sh, etc. scripts. That you used to parse image descriptions. Any other tips, cyberporn researcher to cyberporn researcher? :) -Declan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Oct 1995 17:12:42 -0400 (EDT) From: Martin Rimm To: "Declan B.

Are you interested in helping me replicate, and possibly validate, your research? If you are, you should be *happy* to send me a copy of the programs you used to parse the image descriptions. -Declan PS: You wrote to Seth: "I am working on a PERL program which classifies the images. For instance, every time the word 'dog' but not 'doggie' occurs in a description, perl writes it to the bestiality category." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Oct 1995 18:07:03 -0400 (EDT) From: Martin Rimm To: "Declan B.

Marty, I assume you're implying I'm not an honorable person. But I'm more interested in the restrictions you establish before deciding to help someone replicate your research. Wouldn't it make sense to ask me about my educational background and perhaps talk with my advisor -- in other words, investigate not my *ethical* credentials, but my *academic* ones? So are you going to help me replicate -- and perhaps validate -- your study or not? I'm just asking for some rudimentary help here. -Declan ------------------------------------------------------------------------
