JD,

Thanks for addressing. That's more than most will do. Maybe you can suggest taking out "Tomorrow's Entries", as the other paper has done, and that would provide you with the additional space you desire? I hope your editor realizes how revising your picks and analysis to that degree makes you look.

It has been tried in the past and every time it happens, the office is bombarded with irate customers. We dont get that many complaints with column or font changes but if tomorrow's entries come out, get out the Tylenol because our ears and phones will be ringing constantly.
