I heard a story, while on the way home, that surprised me to the point I had to "fact check" it. Which in turn lead to a few other surprises.
Today's entire production run of The New York Times SOLD OUT. And The Times, in what maybe a first, ran an afternoon production run of 50,000 more papers.
Their web site hit a new record for hits.
This is the web sites front page for todays paper:

Today's Times Sells Out! Printing Extra 50,000 Copies for Afternoon Rush; NYTimes.com Breaks Another Record

While looking this up, found that this not only happened to the rest of the papers in NYC (NYC has about 4-5 different papers), it also happened around the rest of the county!!!

And I found this site which has the front page of papers around the world.
NOTE: Running very slow due to very high volume. Wonder why???
