Finally Got'em Up

Hammerstead Farms got a lot of local press in July, and I finally managed to find the time to scan in the articles and post them. The scanning is a bit rough: my flat bed scanner only handles 8.5 x 11 inch paper, and these were news sheet sized (one is an entire page, the other a half page). One's full color, too, and with the bleed from the back of the page it kinda made one side darker than the other. But with judicious cutting and pasting, I managed to assemble reasonable (and readable) facsimiles. I figured I'd better do this before I take Big Mac apart this afternoon and replace the main drive!

Basically the articles are the same: they were written by the same reporter, although the layout is different, and the one from the Reporter is edited for brevity. But since it's only my second 15 minutes of fame, and probably my last (time is running out!), I'm posting both! The article from the Lebanon Reporter can be found here (672k) and the one from the Zionsville Times Sentinel is here. (1.3m)

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
