In article <406@sun13.scri.fsu.edu> I put my foot in my mouth and write:

In another brief scan of this mag I chanced across a "special subscription rate"
card, with a 50% discount for charter subscribers ($21 for one year (6 issues)).
If you choose to contact these folks, you might want to mention that you heard
about this offer. The card only offered a special rate for the first year.
Sorry I missed it in the first zip-through.

This weekend, I'll see if I can do a real read of at least the star/black hole
article - the underlying science of which I might understand - and see if I
can give a semi-scientific review of what they're publishing.
