     @sjvn Funny that, I recall once reading that Michael Stipe had given a similar advice to Thom Yorke which inspired Radiohead’s song “How to disappear completely without a trace”. Is someone penning a new hit song then?

     @sjvn Maybe I'm being paranoid, but it's curious that there's now an email from the Post after accessing their link.

     @AAKL Nothing paranoid about it. They need new subscriptions and they need them now. I just canceled mine, but it still has months to run before it expires.
