I have always detested the American practice - if I'm reading an article
I like to read from start to end without having to go hunting for the
second half. It's always seemed to me that the reason for it was to hook
readers by the first half article, then make them wade over pages of
adverts to reach the second half, which frequently shared its half page
with an ad.
My 2p worth,
Mike.
