Get a job at SAE? :-)

Not generally. According to the pink or green leaflet that come with
the printed paper, it's illegal to make copies to pass onto others.
May not apply to all papers; sometimes the contributing organization
has free downloads at their web site.

Do try to remember that you're using somebody else's brain when
reading.
