Unfortunately Greg Bryant is away at the moment, but I thought a response to your thread was necessary. Please be assured that the change of ownership of S&T will not change the quality of magazine of the US magazine or affect the production of AS&T. We are excited by the change in ownership because it means another trip to the US to meet the new guys.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com[IMG]http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/ /><o:p></o:p>

<FONT color=black><FONT face="Times New Roman"><FONT size=3>Your comment regarding the purchasing of our other magazines interests me. Do you have a special interest in woodworking? I’d be happy to give you a good subs rate. Todd (AS&T Publisher) and I have several other magazine interests including a custom magazine for TabCorp’s Star City Casino. We won the bid to produce it against Packer’s ACP, TextPacific and FPC Magazines. See the attached write up in B&T Magazine. <FONT face=Arial><FONT color=#800080>http://www.bandt.com.au/news/67/0c03c267.asp<FONT color=black><o:p></o:p>
<FONT color=black><FONT size=3><FONT face="Times New Roman">We are professional magazine publishers and publish for profit and are very keen to build the market segments we invest in. We have invested in the astronomy market because we saw it as a market that has undergone changes in technology, is currently expanding and as an area we both have a particular interest in.<o:p></o:p>

Lastly, congratulations with S&S, I like the improvements you guys have made.<o:p></o:p><o:p></o:p>
