Unlike
this web site which is still free to viewers, the Tulsa
World has decided to charge a subscription fee for online viewers
(at least $15/month) so until further notice I will no longer be
using that site as a source nor linking there where I have been
driving traffic for years. Even if I paid the fee, the links would
not be useful for non-subscribers. I understand their rational /
business plan but will need to find alternatives, one of which is
increased email help from my viewers on death notices and out-of-town
sports scores, etc... -- Ted Wright -- www.cvilleok.com -- April
