I agree, and would like to ask a question of the group along 
these lines.

My parents renew a subscription to Time for me every year.  (I
probably would not buy it myself.)  Every year they ask me if
that is ok, and if I would prefer another news magazine.

I always say no because I can't think of an alternative one.
Newsweek is a Time clone.  US News and World Report is a right
wing, financially oriented magazine.

I read Yoga Journal and Dragon, too, but I don't think that's what
they have in mind!

So what are my alternatives?  What do you all read, and what
would you recommend for this aging hippie?  (That her parents would
conceivably buy her, of course.  I don't think they'd shell out
for Playgirl. :-)
