It's just a useful little tidbit I picked up from Mr. Clod while he was working for a web analytics company: Google will not index pages that require registration, by policy. NYT wants you to pay, but they also want to maintain their mainstream footprint by coming up in internet searches. So every article has a "please register to read this" version, and a fully-printed version. If you're ever asked to register for an article, just do a search for the title of that article, and the un-blocked link will come up. This goes for several other major online publications, but not all of them, of course.
