Well, I saw it on a newsstand yesterday...The Naked Eye, at Haight & Fillmore in San Francisco, if anybody's interested. I don't know if it's *widely* available, though. According to the Globe yesterday (8/7), it should be available at Waldenbooks and B. Dalton's for $4.50. (If you can stand the places...) Which raises another question: $4.50 * 6 = $27. The normal subscription price is $40, and (according to the same article) it is possible to get a subscription for $30 as some sort of introductory offer. What gives? david carlton carlton@linus.mitre.org
