Unless it has improved since I saw it last, why bother? When I first started subscribing, it was what it pretended to be: a publication examining objectively claims of the paranormal. By the time my subscription ran out (or whatever it was that happened to the magazine), they were beginning to remind me of creationists: the same Keepers of the True Science, with a pretense of objectivity veneered over a strong bias in favor of protecting the scientific establishment. They had managed to completely defeat the purpose of science: free inquiry.
