  2. Mach1 critique in S&T Dec 2007

I e-mail and raised all sorts of fuss when my first issue came with the
cheaper binding. Really cheapens the magazine, and like you said, not
having the spline means we can't easily reference older issues.

I recently rain into Shawn Walker and let him know my feelings too :)

Oh well, everyone is having to trim the fat, and they are no different. I
do hope AP is an exception and continues taking the "High Road."

Hi Dean,

That is one thing that has always really bugged me about S&T
magazine -
now, recently another, that they have gone back to stapling, and you can't
find an old issue since there is no longer a "spine" to see the date in a
carton.

Wish they would publish a "special interim issue", and then get the
publishing dates back to a normal sequence. I suppose they do that on
purpose,
to give us a couple of months time in reading completely through an issue,
in
preparation for some cosmological event, we wouldn't want to miss.

Does any other monthly magazine publish months in advance?
For me, it's more annoying than supposedly well intentioned.

Magazine dates make about as much sense as buying 2008 model cars in
2007???

Your December issue is the one that should have just arrived. The
November issue has been out for a month.

The Nov issue of S&T has just arrived and the "next month's contents"
does not mention it. Likewise the contents list for the Dec issue of
Sky &Telescope, vol 114, No 6 on the "www.skypub.com" website
does not mention the Mach 1.
What have I got wrong please ? Gerald
