    Canada perfected this little scheme back when the National Post was founded and trying to inflate its numbers.

    I went to UNLV right at the ending cusp of LV's glory days (More classic hotels on the Strip than douchebag attractors, Tarkanian was still coaching, slots still dropped coins etc) and even in 1993, with under a million residents, LV still was a two-newspaper town.

    In fact I still have my mint-condition copies of the LV Sun's farewell to the Dunes Hotel special issue .. though, little did the Sun know they were about to implode themselves :[] .. good times though.

    If the internet had been set up originally on a per-fee basis, maybe there wouldn't be resistance to the idea of internet-only news. "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" comes to mind.

    I was hoping for the death of print media if only to save the forests.

    @Lysergic Asset: Compuserve, payable by the minute. Something called The Source offered all sorts of university (East Mississippi Barbers', I think) research opportunity at $7 per minute. Other deep resources offered a cover charge to the Inner Sanctum. This was connectivity in the late 80s, when I started. Even the local "tree board," the BBS which organized chatter so it went on forever like an organization chart, began charging.

    Then somebody said, hey, everybody's still listening to radio and watching teevee. What's their business plan again?

    That dragon is peeing on her. And Paris sort of likes it, before the disfiguring car crash.

    That big lizard is the ideal mascot for the advertised drink, 'cause with such low alcohol the night will just drag on.
