whats_news.extract() doesn't appear to do anything. Where is the code for the extract() method?

I assume it is supposed to put all those links into a page but I found nothing in my file. Sorry for all this spam, I just got the Nook and am trying to make it work for me.

I am glad we did not let this situation die and that the WSJ will be of use again.
Thanks Kovid and everyone else.

whats_news.extract() removes the whats news part in the front page section so that those links aren't added to the recipe.

I see. I'd actually like to put the Whats News links section into its own page of links. I'll just have to figure that out. Thanks

Updated Recipe
I added the What's News section and I also added the "Spice of Life" story that always appears bottom center of the front page. The original recipe doesn't include it because of website formatting issues.

Question: How can I single thread the downloading? WSJ seems to know that I've got a logged in session already and sometimes fails to deliver the content. I think a single threaded recipe process would solve this problem.

Anyone know why the WSJ daily download is now over 5Mb but used to be under 1Mb? Just curious.
