Today I had to go back to the dentist and I saw the September issue of Outside. I didn't have time to look it over too carefully, but it seemed pretty good. Are my standards slipping? Was it a fluke? I will have to spend some time in the library this weekend reviewing recent issues, but it's nice to think that it might have risen back up into goodness.
I have taken and let drop dozens of magazines. Only my stalwart core remains at the moment. I can't imagine my interest in these flagging:
Economist
Granta
National Geographic
Skeptical Inquirer
Smithsonian
