A flaw in this theory is that in most bookstores I frequent, there are STACKS of the swimsuit issue on display well into April. This issue isn't usually pulled from the racks at the end of the cover week.

Not that I've ever, you know, gone LOOKING for one... ;-)

Has it occurred to anyone but me that there may have been a greater
demand than anticipated and that issues were diverted to newstands?  Or
am I just a cynical curmudgeon?
