Signs of the Times

A lot of sportfishing boats are headed south through the Bahamas right
now because they can't fish in the Gulf of Mexico. We were talking
to a delivery captain yesterday who is on his way to the Turks and
Caicos, coming from Alabama. They had to go as far east as Destin, FL
in the ICW before they could start heading south because of the clean
up efforts.

Yes, I can imagine. And that's going to be happening for quite a
while. I really dont' know if it's a trade-off, b one thing I can see
happening for more than a moment, it that it will obviously hurt the
rec. areas that are already experiencing hard times, However it will
increase business in other places that aren't used to it.

But speaking of a sign of the times....

That is hard to believe but I know they were seriously mismanaged for
a number of years by the old time family owners. When I was a kid I'd
pore over every issue as soon as it arrived. In small town America
it was my only exposure to some of the big city publications like the
Wall Street Journal and a few others.

I rememebr combing over them as a kid. They were great. My
grandparents subscribed to the RD from probably the beginning and
there were always piles of them around their house.

Sad to see it go, that is the US editions.

Magazines are on the endangered list.
The ones they publish are getting thinner.
This month's Scientific American is 88 pages. 10 years ago it was
double that. Newsweek has become a pamphlet.- Hide quoted text -

I must say that I quit subscribing to magazines several years ago when
they turned into advertizing outlets with some minor articles in
them. I thought it was redundant for companies to pay for ads to be
put in the publications, then me pay to see the ads.

Scary for this province. We have three large mills that produce rolls of
newsprint and fancier glossy paper for magazines.

Yeah. Bad for that industry, but with inginuity maybe they could
convert their operations over to make toilet paper. There's always a
market for toilet paper.

Yup, judging by the amount of excrement expelled in this newsgroup, we
could keep all three mills running right here.
