Editor’s note: I likely work at the only newspaper in the country which had to yell “stop the presses” in response to Steve Jobs’ death. That’s because our deadline is an insanely early 7 p.m. We were running a little late tonight. At 7:37, I got Matt’s e-mail about Jobs’ death. People came running back in to get something in the paper about him. We couldn’t pull off a cover, but we redid a page. We got out at roughly 8:20. Tonight was rough. And sad. I’m still pretty numb about this whole thing. Steve will be missed. Greatly. — Ernie @ SFB
