I live in Los Angeles, and the yellowing I originally reported was from 
the LA Times.. interesting to hear that this doesn't happen with all 
newspapers.  The yellowing effect is really striking, a bright greenish 
yellow, and the coated surface of the paper wasn't even in contact with 
the newsprint, so the contamination is either happening through the 
base side of the paper or through the air.  If you're testing for this 
effect, you'll see it within a few hours if it's going to happen.  EEM 
is the only other paper I use, and it isn't effected.
The yellowed print has been sitting by itself for nearly a week now, 
and it's slowly, slowly losing the contamination.
