Even more interesting is that this statement changes
throughout the year.  Comparison of the statement in the
January issue with that in the following December issue is
fascinating.

This publisher basically changes the frequency statement
with practically every issue published.

Their address is listed as being about a mile from here.  I
have frequently considered stopping by to tell them what I
think of their publishing practices. ;-)
