Unfortuanately, this may be the last Post & Courier link that we can run.   The P&C has established a paywall for its content -  much like the Greenville News has done and even the Anderson Independent-Mail.  For now The State's GoGamecocks.com has been free to me but it looks like I've finished up my free clicks, too.  I think its stupid that the big dailies requiring a subscription for page views when they sell online advertising based on volume, but they seem more-and-more wedded to this business model each year.
