// ADDITIONAL NOTES //
//---------------------------------//
-Use SUBHED field for "Page 2 of 4" etc.
-COMPLETELY produce story first, then make copies (includes freeforms, etc.)
-Maintain a copy of the FULL TEXT in Notepad for disassembly/assembly/backup purposes -- copy pieces out and into Page 1, Page 2 articles, etc.
-SPREAD OUT photos and videos throughout pages -- don't duplicate, but don't leave later pages devoid of visual offerings.
-Add the "[function] hide the comments on an article (11731129)" to all pages after the first, then use the MERGE TOOL to merge comments on all stories into the one parent story.
