Editorial
It's been kind of a running joke here that if we tell people to let us know if they receive our magazine after a certain date, something will go wrong and nearly everyone will receive it after that date. As a result, we're always inundated with calls. Since we changed our format, this is but one of many problems we've been trying to solve. If all goes well, and it damn well better, we will be mailing on the 18th of May. If you receive this much later than you would a first class letter, let us know and we'll find out who's dragging what.
Once the mailing gets close to routine, we'll be focusing on distribution. This is where readers can help us out. As it is, we've been pretty successful at newsstands here in New York, down in the southern part of the country, and in London, U.K. Success for us means selling about 80 percent of what we send. We have important things to say here and we want to reach all kinds of other thinking people throughout the world. So, if you know of a fairly decent newsstand by you, one that sells alternative publications, let us know and we'll try to distribute there.
We hope to see some curious folks at our first public get-together in New York City. It will take place at the Citicorp Center at 153 East 53rd Street at 5 pm in the Atrium, where all kinds of people gather. We'll have 2600 buttons and copies of this issue will be everywhere. So stop by and ask some questions or bring articles. And if you'd like us to come to a city near you, start pestering us now.
