I'm going to hide all my science books now and change my subscription name details to New Scientist and Scientific American. I first saw a copy of "New Scientist" in the laundry room at the Opua Marina in New Zealand in 01'. I thought "'New Scientist', eh, that will be some kind of touchy-feely new age thing, but it should amuse me while the clothing spins." Little did I know. I've been a subscriber every since. They go to my brother's house and one of the joys of home port is the knowledge that there will be a stack of them waiting for me. -- Tom. Yes Tom, its a great magazine. It is not a technical as "Scientific American" which I have subscribed to since university days. It makes difficult subjects simple to understand without losing any of the essential parts. What I like is that when I am away from home I can just logon on the web and read the articles anywhere. Nothing like the mental stimulus and keeping up with developments whilst anchored in a foreign port. regards Peter Good Lord Peter, what kind of magazine are you promoting to poor innocent readers of the Internet? Figuring "Good Old Peter" is probably on to something I did a google search for "New Scientist" and the first thing that popped up was: "Oral sex-related cancer at 30-year high".
