Big bunch of XML for download?

Folks,

I'm planning to demo SQL/XML on Thursday.  Does anyone have access to a
good quantity of public-domain XML I can download to use for demos?

Thanks!

It's not public domain, but

wget -r http://www.postgresql.org/

should provide you with plenty of XML.

The following URL has some reasonably sized XML files from the government.
One is over 11 mb in size. Hope this helps. You can usually find large XML
files in government data sources.

Thanks.  I ended up using DMOZ's restaurant review listings, which are
in pretty messy RDF so I had to do a lot of data cleaning.  I'll try the
nist stuff next time.
