[Boston-editorial] Reminder about the Razorwire

First of all I don't wanna piss anybody off.  I know how important everyone feels getting witnesses is, and I agree with the sentiment.  But one of the norms we have from way back and razor wires is that they are kept as short as is humanly possible so that the feature article still appears on peoples screens (especially when they have small screens).   I shortened the razorwire, but I think it still says essentially the same thing, just more concise.  
 
Keeping headlines short is good too- both for easy reading (and thus a good hook) and for the ability to see the photo used with the article on the main screen.   The more of that photo people can see, the more interested folks will get and the better our site will look.
