I was not going to get involved in all this as I am friends with Lyle and many of the chaps who edit or contribute to Sky and Space. However, I am disheartened by the time that is involved regarding the last publication. For nearly two years I paid for subscription to members who won our rant of the month competition on SCP (this is not an add for the site). It totals something like $500-$600 and to the best of my knowledge no one has received a full subscription yet. I was prepared to accept that Lyle was ill and due to the structure of the magazine it was impossible to release a new edition whilst this was happening. Other unfortunate circumstances also transpired which affected Lyle too. That was over a year ago since I heard that things were now back on track and now I think it is time for some results. I have all but written off the subscriptions, but hope that everything is sorted out one day. I don't know when that will be, but I hope it is soon.
I tried to contact the mag last night and found that the contact link did not work. Perhaps this is something to do with my IE version (most likely given Microsofts impeccible performance in the past).
Lyle if you are reading this please do something about this whole issue, tell us what is going on and if you cannot get S&S out to us at least give a refund to as many of the subscribers as possible.
Having one magazine of Australian origin is not good for the hobby, competition is always good.
That is all I have to say on this matter.
