Thanks for the kind words Drake.
The missing print button is indeed a mystery! Our IT team are investigating.
Most people seemed to dislike the PDFs, so we opted for the more common route of printing a reformatted web page, though we'll certainly take your feedback into consideration.
In the meantime it should be possible to get the print version by pressing Ctrl+P, and if you install software such as CutePDF (http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/writer.asp) you can save what would have otherwise been printed as a PDF, though I appreciate it's a couple of extra steps.
As for the article splitting, it's something that many ad-supported websites have to do in order to keep everything free, unfortunately. We've tried to make it less painful than it used to be by making pages much quicker to load.
Cheers
