Waiting a whole month for another issue I <i><u>try</u></i> to make the <i>new information</i> last a week. <br /> <br /><u>Day 1</u>. There is always one article from the cover that tickles my interest more than the rest so I read it first. Then go back to the index and read the next article or two of intrest. <br /><u>Day 2</u>. I start from the front and read all the articles - scale doesn't matter - I always learn something from every article. <br /><u>Day 3</u>. I go back and re-read the articles that I found most interesting, absorbing the information at a much slower pace, thinking about how this could apply to my modeling and/or layout. <br /><u>Day 4</u>. I leaf through looking closely at the photos and think about what I've learned from each article. <br /><u>Day 5</u>. Test day! I look over the cover and index, recalling the info from each article and how I can apply the info to my modeling and layout. <br /><u>Day 6 until next issue</u>. I read the ads, look at pictures and photos looking forward to the next issue. <br /> <br />In reality... I wish I could discipline myself to do the above but I can't put the dern thing down and end up craming day1-5 into one day and wishing that it was a weekly publication!! [:D] <br /> <br />
