If an article is excerpt only, personally, go by the 1/3 rule. Even though John's written a 300 word code, I try to abide by the guidelines and be fair (I'll post the first one or two sentences) Personally, I try not to post from those sites, why give them additional hits when they're being bitchy about it? I don't want to see FR shafted by, "you posted 253 words, and it should have been 216 words".

The 1/3 rule sounds fine to me,will do.The rule is a fair one.

Personally, I try not to post from those sites..

Don't confuse the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.The Trib is one of the best conservative newspapers in the country, while the Post-Gazette is just another liberal rag.

You know better than I, but I'd be surprised if the Trib gets "bitchy" about posting their stuff on FR.

Thanks for the guidance! :-)
