1. Go to the URL

2. double click inside the story text (middle of the page), and drag to select
a sentence or two

--> works fine: selection begins where you double clicked, and extends to the
point in the text where you release.

3. Now try a drag initiated with a SINGLE click (i.e., Just click once, and
drag over the same region as you tried before)

--> selection floods well beyond the rect defined by your drag click and stop -
all the way out to side bars and up to the top of the page.
