Hi,

Because it's all on one page, it won't really work that way -- sitescooper
won't split up the page into separate stories, it'll just output the
entire page text as one story.  I'd suggest ditching the ContentsStart/End
and just using:

	StoryStart: <!--OBITS START HERE-->
	StoryEnd: <!-- END OBITS -->
