Actually, two things dropped through my letterbox (okay, four things but the junk mail doesn't count and final demands for payment go straight in the bin) both of which bore startling similarities (and differences).
One was the last issue* of a certain editor's tenure on a long-running and high-regarded periodical dated 1969 (so it must have passed through a time-warp or something - if it was still going I'd cancel my subscription if that's the level of customer service I can expect).
The other was the first issue of a certain other editor's tenure on a new and surely to be highly-regarded (and highly sought after surely?) periodical dated July 2005 and bearing the moniker Prototype X.
What can I say? Well, I've only browsed through it the once but it looks pretty darned special. Certainly it's going to take me a while to read everything in it. Far roo early to be able to mention any highlights, but the article on squids(!) looks interesting. Looking forward to reading everyone's contributions though.
Mr Perdix, you've done a sterling job, sir. Now, back in the Shed with you; we need - indeed demand - P-X2!! :D
