This is the same article concerning our micropayments experiment you've seen previously in the Washington Post and other notable newspapers, but the adorable cartoon they've drawn to accompany it is worth a glance.

Too bad the story is bylined 25 July and still refers to your experiment "last week". On deadline, the first casualty is truth.

Yes, of course, blame the deadline.

And remember, print media employees have no axes to grind in these matters.

it's a shame the peanuts-esque cartoon is so small. I'd love to use it as my wallpaper.
