I'm not sure exactly what gainI'll be missing. Every spring there are
articles in every aviation mag about flying when there is convective
weather. After flying a few years and being exposed to 100 such articles
admonishing us not to fly into a thunderstorm, what is gained be reading one
more? Anyway, it is my six year old who isn't going to subscribe

That's known as cutting off your nose to spite your face. The value of

what
you will miss far exceeds any perceived gain.

I used to subscribe to IFR until I realized that they offered a much

better
rate to new subscribers than to existing ones. After realizing this, my
four year old decided to subscribe :-). Today he recieved a

solicitation
from another aviation magazine. Obviously they sold his (and my) name

and
address. I always check the little box indicating that I don't want my
information shared and I don't want to recieve any offers. I will never
subscribe to any Belvoire publication again.

Just had to vent after calling a credit card company and telling them

not
to
send me any more ot their stupid balance tranfer checks. It was the

third
time I called them. I am in the national opt out list for all

pre-approved
credit and I still get at least two "offers" a day. I guess that

Congress
is so busy spending our hard earned money developing rainforests in Iowa

and
subsidized rail to Disneyland that they don't have time for legislation

that
ordinary people really care about.
