Out-of-towners and obits

An e-mailer from Virginia complained last week that he wanted to read an obituary but couldn't because The Star's online content isn't free. He desired to visit the site one time to read the death announcement of a friend. (We certainly hope his one visit will entice him to stick around and purchase an online subscription.)

What he wanted, at least initially, was a day pass, which allows a visitor a 24-hour free trial of annistonstar.com. For those in a similar spot, the link is here.
