I subscribed under the introductory offer in December of 1988. At that time I bought a six issue print and disk subscription for myself, and a gift print subscription for a friend. Because I did not have my friends address handy, I gave my address for all subscriptions. In the mean time, my friend subscribed on his own. When the first issues arrived, I gave my friend his copy and he wrote to them to try to combine his subscriptions. The problem has never been resolved and my friend has lost both his subscriptions. However I have recently received a couple of advertisements in his name at my address!!. I have now received issue #6 of the printed magazine with an insert that my subscription is expiring, and a letter with a photocopied subscription form, asking me to resubscribe and offering 13 issues for the price of 12, as an inducement (as an original subscriber). However I have not yet received the disks for issues #5 or #6!! Has anyone?? I like the magazine a lot. I may even resubscribe. (After all I still after over 20 years think of TRONO as "home") (and want to support Canadian enterprises (even if British? owned)) But after the way they have mucked up my subscription... I just find it hard to make up my mind. ----------------------------------------------- Reply-To: Rostyslaw Jarema Lewyckyj urjlew@ecsvax.UUCP , urjlew@tucc.bitnet or urjlew@tucc.tucc.edu (ARPA,SURA,NSF etc. internet) tel.
