3. My mother was just telling me. She's subscribed to that paper for decades

Although to be fair we started out with the Harrisburg Evening News when I was a kid.

I wonder if PN is going to go with online subscriptions. They did that with the News Journal here in Wilmington and to be honest I find it annoying. You only get 5 free articles a month but I get around that by clearing my cache out a few times each month so the number resets.

4. What a shame. They did a terrific job on the Sandusky case and trial.

A sad commentary.....
