Lynne and others,
What Lynne lists below is also what I have and there are not any missing issues. For some reason they have skipped 4723 and the issue for January 24 is 4724. I don't know why the publisher thinks the numbering is wrong, but they do and have made this adjustment.

My issues were tracking just fine, so I was muddling along very well until I got the list message!
I have received:
Dec 13 4718
Jan 1 4719/4720
Jan 10 4721
Jan 17 4722
Why, then, is "Jan 10th actually 4722 and January 17th ... 4723"? What issue am I missing that was supposed to be 4721?
Yours, confused,

I thought others would like to know the response that came from the publisher regarding the numbering of this title.

THEIR RESPONSE:
The publisher had a problem with their numering which was to be
corrected with the Jan 24th issue. If you have the 1/17 you should not be
missing anything. Below is some information I received from the publisher a
couple weeks ago. Thanks- Carissa
Unfortunately, despite my instructions the numbering of the double issues
was done incorrectly and this hasn't been rectified for the start of 2005 -
sooooooooo........Jan 10th is actually 4722 and January 17th should be 4723.
The sequence will be corrected for next week so Jan 24th will be 4724.
best wishes,
stephen
MY INQUIRY:
The January 24, 2005 issue of New Statesman is predicted as Vol.
134, No. 4723 (New Statesman & Society Vol. 18, no. 842 is the alternate
numbering. However, the issue itself is numbered Vol. 134, No. 4724 (New
Statesman & Society Vol. 18, no. 843).
I don't think we missed an issue because we have January 17. Things like
this drive librarians crazy.
