I hadn't realised this was going to be happening -- I managed to get away with phoning them up and saying that my supplement was missing (I didn't get the paper that day, so it's sort of true; my supplement AND the paper were missing...) and they happily sent it to me :D Liking the move -- bringing BA to a bigger audience is a good, and worthy, goal :) Chris, UK, Very-Rural-And-Superstitious-Part-of-Devon, Skeptic Hi BA :) Thought you might like to know, if you’re not already aware, that the Chris Morris article was also included in a special CERN supplement in every Guardian newspaper as well, on Monday.
