    Howdy Leo!

    Ummmm… How about linking to a couple of free news sites? The Washington Post is demanding money to view and you have linked at least two stories to them.

    Just wondering.

    Thanks!

      Using the Chrome browser, instead of clicking on the link, I right click on the link and then select “open link in incognito window”. The incognito window doesn’t save cookies and starts fresh so those paywalls usually let you see the article thinking it is your first-time visit.
