I can't resist commenting that I could see Flynt buying "ANTIC", possibly because he thought the name would be appropriate for one of HIS kind of magazines. But ANALOG??? Reminds me of a true incident, back in the days before everyone had home computers or interest in computer magazines, when a friend of mine recommended to the company librarian and her assistant that they get a subscription for the library to Byte Magazine. They both gave him a funny look and asked, "What is that, one of those girlie magazines?" It really happened, s'help me! -John Sangster, jhs@mitre-bedford.arpa

------ I tried to call their offices today, and still no answer even though an interview with Lee H. Pappas indicated that they would be shipping at the end of Jan. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Joubert | /\ | /\ | _ jpdres13@usl-pc.USL | \|<>|>|> \|<>|>|><`|`| or ... |-----/|-------/|----------------------- ut-sally!usl-pc!jpdres13 | \/ \/ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
