Wellie, no rush...When you get a chance could you copy & paste the article onto this forum? In order to read you have to sign-up with the WaPo. Again...No rush.

I have found that when I get the "sign up" forwarding, just hit your stop loading page X in your browser.  I routinely use it.  They fit my category of sux when they do things like that.

I have found a fair number of newspapers do that.  It takes some timing and may need several attempt but IMHO its worth it so I can make them stop being in the sux category some small bit.
