Anyone here get this magazine? I have been a subscriber since it began back in the 80’s. I did not get an issue last week (dated July 12th). The previous issue was not a double issue so I contacted their customer service line and was told there was no issue July 12th. I read the fine print and see that it now says they publish three issues a month except for two issues in February, June and July and four issues in March. Huh? How does a weekly magazine only publish two or three issues a month? Anyone know how long this has been going on? I am very angry and seriously considering not renewing it. Jay

I think you're about to be even angrier.

I saw that too but shouldn’t the publisher have contacted subscribers and formally notified us of the change and how it impacts our subscription? I paid a subscription for so many issues of the magazine. Now they are saying that there will be fewer issues a month but if we bought say 48 issues for a year, shouldn’t we still get 48 issues, not 12? I am seriously considering contact our consumer protection agency about this. Jay
