    What do you mean???

    ***Editor's note: This story has been updated since it was originally published.***

    The story appears to be the same. The date of the story remains the same. How do we know what part of the story has been updated?

    It would be nice for the editors to put in bold, in color, or even Italics, the updated portion. Or even pay Mr. Smith more money to write an actual, separate update.
