Less ink good, single pages bad

Regarding the letter by Elwood Enge in Monday’s paper, “So many single pages make mess.”: He beat me to the punch by only a couple of days. He said it well. I also am annoyed by the single pages that have appeared since the paper was acquired by new people.

It sure does make it difficult to read the paper in the morning. It does not stay together well and falls all over the floor. Please discontinue this new annoyance you have started before you lose too many customers.

I also buy my paper subscription by the year just as Mr. Enge does or I might have been tempted to end it already.

On the positive side, my hands do seem to be a little less black now when I finish reading the paper. You must be using a different ink. Thank you for that if that is the case. That also was very annoying.
