321 Contact Magazines

It sure is great to hear all your feedback. It's unfortunate that
there aren't any easy answers for sharing the mags. I did like
Tom's idea of posting reviews of the magazines. I'd be comfortable
with this and wouldn't mind doing it now and then. For example, my
oldest issue is from March 1980 and it talks about how to get a
paper airplane off the ground, the life of a circus vet,
and "Amazing Movies - Could they really happen?"

Is anyone interested in hearing more? Granted, it's not quite the
same, but it could be fun to hear some of those interesting factoids
they put in the magazine, such as:

"There are 2,400,000 American's named Smith. That's more than any
other name."

or

"Most adult Americans know about 10,000 words."

Let me know your thoughts.

Take care,

Val

Hi, This is illegal. It is just like sending free MP3 of music. You are letting people steal the images of the magazine for free. People can print them and...

Hi Bob, Thanks for the information. It looks like an amendment to the copyright laws for printed material occurred before the magazine was printed. If it...

Hi, No problem. It is actually now illegal to make CD packups unless you are doing it for an MP3 player. That is why they are not protected like DVD's ...

Actually, it is still not illegal to make backup copies of CDs (even software) for archival/backup purposes. The RIAA is trying to make it illegal, but they...
