You're welcome!

At least I know SOMEONE is reading the magazine. 370 downloads (at this point) and this is the only comment.

This is another example of a very fine magazine issue!

Replacing Mark's sections wit the puzzles was a great idea (although I'll still miss his Double Take and Gimp tips, of course).

I've read the whole thing (that's why I may be late n commenting), and it was a joy  :D

Thanks to everyone involved!
