ask for all kinds of personal advice on makeup and this and that. I'd love to be able to provide all this information and I'd love to have the time to take care of everyones needs and loneliness but I don't have either the time or the information in most cases, so please don't disappoint yourself by asking things we can't supply

you.

V. PUBLICATION DATES: I informed everyone several issues back that I was having to abandon the fixed publication date of the 1st of the month. With travels (I didn't get back from Alaska till the day this issue should have appeared and this being typed on the 14th) and other delays it just isn't possible. I have said before-send in your subscription and wait, you'll get it when it is available. If you are concerned that your order was actually received and recorded, enclose a stamped self addressed post card and I will return it acknowledging receipt of the order. We can't take the time to tell you "No. ??? is ready, send in your sub." I've never knowingly cheated anyone yet so trust me.

VI. BACK ISSUES AGAIN: The 6 for $20 back issue deal is really "1 free with 5" thus it cannot be cut in half as 3 for $10. Moreover back issues means just that, the current issue is not a back issue and is not includeable in the 6. Again a reminder that back issues are being exhausted. No. 26 and No. 31 are now gone with many others left in very small numbers. If you want 'em, get 'em!

VII. SALES TAX AND FOREIGN EXCHANGE: Will California subscribers please remember the 6% sales tax on all of our books and merchandise. Periodicals like TVia, Mirror and Clipsheet are not taxable, everything else is. And will our Canadian subscribers remember that there is about a 9% differential between Canadian and U.S. funds. On top of this, personal checks on Canadian banks bring me a service charge from mine. Simplest solution is to buy brown foreign postal money orders at your P.O. The exchange is figured in. Thanks.
