Patti,

does the Naperville Sun, Aurora Beacon-News, the Joliet Herald-News, or the 
Elgin Courier-News publish all or substantially all of its content on the 
web or just a portion of their content?  the trend with newspapers is 
online with some papers eliminating print distribution, such as the 
Christian Science Monitor,  and others scaling it back significantly, such 
as with the Capitol Times in Madison, Wisconsin.  The Chicago Tribune's 
business section has many more stories in the online edition compared to 
the print edition from what I understand.Yes, the cluttered pages can be a 
hassle.  I have figured out how to navigate the Tribune's cluttered pages 
successfully.  We can talk sometime about the approaches I use.
