You spoke, the Associated Press listened

I had barely gotten to my desk this morning when the first call came. Soon there were several more, all of them readers who follow the commodities section on our stocks page and wanted to point out to me that our gold and silver commodity listings had not changed in days.

We get our stocks and commodities listings directly from the Associated Press, and from there they go straight into our paper.  But even the Associated Press can make mistakes. So I called the AP help desk and mentioned what our readers had said.   AP said they’d look into it.

Sure enough, when the AP listings came through this evening, they had changed.   Evidently, everybody has a glitch every now and then.  So, thanks for calling and letting us know!
