I saw tonight someone on the SMCIS/NEWLIFE service mention that _The_Door_
(formerly _The_Wittenburg_Door_) could be shutting. This is the magazine
published by Youth Specialties on a theoretically bi-monthly basis.

For those unfamiliar with _The_(Wittenburg)_Door_, it is a somewhat
radical piece of literature on various topics, tending to be challenging,
thought-provoking or rather deemed offensive at times. Calling it a
Christian version of Mad Magazine wouldn't be too far off, were it not
for the serious interviews within each issue.

Can anyone confirm this news of demise, or upcoming demise, or is The
Wittenburg Door in a Mark Twain mode (rumours of death exaggerated)?
Maybe there's a final Door on its way in the mail even ....
