'Print Article' Silliness

First of all, as someone who's spent much time shopping for themes, I LOVE the Nightlife theme--especially after adding my own header graphic and customizing the css. Very nice work.

HOWEVER, I don't understand the point of the 'Print Artcle' link that follows each post on the home page. When I saw this, I thought the same thing that probably everyone thinks: "Cool, a convenient way to print out an individual post." (It IS in the 'About this Post' section, afterall.) But no, clicking on the link prints the ENTIRE HOME PAGE...including the sidebar content and all other truncated posts. Why would anyone want to print all of that? Not only that, but there is no link for printing an individual post, even on the post page itself. If visitors are going to be misled by near-useless print links on the home page, it would be nice to at least have a useFUL print link on the post page.

I guess my question is, is there some way to make these 'Print Article' links actually print out that particular article, or, if not, is there a way to add a link to the post page itself which will do that?

Sorry if this sounded like a rant--like I said, I love the theme. I just don't understand the thinking on this one issue.
