Well said Alan. I find a lot in the magazines that doesn't interest me at the
moment but it's like the Wired articles in CU which I skipped at the time but
when I went on line they were a valuable source of information. You cannot
have a magazine tailormade for one person's interests unless you want sales
of 1.
On the whole I reckon AA is excellent value and getting better with each
issue. Like Neil said positive feedback is needed if you want the magazine to
reflect your particular interests.
