Yeah, that's a new development.  It might be a good one though.  If a 
newspaper were to go with a completely paperless version I might just buy it.  
The online version should be significantly cheaper of course since their 
production costs are drastically reduced.

I don't feel good about the volume of trees being needlessly destroyed to get 
me the news but I do still prefer the physical book/paper versus digital 
ones.

Regarding the javascript try also blocking javascript for 
www.globetechnology.com and www.globeandmail.com ... the wording is unclear, 
I don't think that blocking globeandmail.com blocks subdomains (www, 
whatever) as well ... I had that same problem.
