Post Body

Magazines today are physically smaller and thinner. Look at the readers digest, looks like the TV guide to me pretty much. The competition is intense, people don't read as much, and they don't tinker as much overall. <br /> <br />It's the times we live in. How many people "take the time" - anymore? For many it is instant gratification. Buy a CD, a DVD, McDonalds, TV, playstation 2, etc. Many many are spectators of life only. They do not ever get the feelings of satisfaction, success, contentment, challenges, setbacks in doing something. <br /> <br />So, the demand just is not there for magazines. We who enjoy them notice the differences. But I am just thankful there is <i>still</i> a Model Railroader (and of mine they go back to the fifties with good stuff still) [:)]
