Hi, one of the reasons to use the exact headline from a story source is to keep down multiple threads of the same story. {Of course, local newspaper editors will make up their own headlines of stories off of newswires to fit into their own column headings but that can't be helped.} When you see stuff in a thread heading that's in parentheses ---{Barf Alert} for instance---that comes from the poster.
