I think they read more magazines on the sciences than about anything else. They sent out a letter to all of the known subscribers and I sent them back an ear full. I suggested that 1. they broadcast gener interest news and programming on the sattelite service and keep the New York material runnning only in the tristate area and 2. that they try to increase the variety of what they are reading instead of homing in on one subject such as the sciences. All in all or all things considered In-Touch operating as both a Radio Reading Service and a Sattelity System does a great job and if I were in their position I'm not sure I could do nearly as well but I had to get my two cents worth in.
