An idea for ad stickers
There have been several letters lately criticizing the advertising stickers on the front page of the Rocky Mountain News.
Some letter writers say it’s a hassle to pull the stickers off, while others complain that the stickers detract from the front-page photos. In this day of declining newspaper revenues, however, the Rocky should be commended for finding an innovative new way to sell advertising.
I have a win-win proposal for all sides, one that allows the stickers to continue while actually enhancing the paper’s content: Instead of placing the stickers on the front page, they should simply be glued neatly over Ed Stein’s political cartoons.

Good idea but I could miss a Kocora ad if it's not on the front. It may take years for me to retrain my vision to actually look at the Stein cartoon block.

Hmm, I wonder if I could get paid for this?
Get enought people to do this and after Halloween recycle the sticky notes by going downtown to RMN building and stick them all over the windows and doors.
