Number of the day:
146. The number of years the Seattle Post-Intelligencer has been published. And there shall the number stay:
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer will roll off the presses for the last time Tuesday.The Hearst Corp. announced Monday that it would stop publishing the 146-year old newspaper, Seattle's oldest business, and cease delivery to more than 117,600 weekday readers.
The company, however, said it would maintain seattlepi.com, making it the nation's largest daily newspaper to shift to an entirely digital news product.
