I saw the following poor review for BONSAI magazine. Evidently the buyer was disappointed to find that it wasn't miniature Customer Reviews: A mistake. January 8, 2006 1 out of 5 found this review helpful I thought the title reflected the actual size of the magazine, so I was saddened when it arrived. I'd built a tiny coffee table for the sole purpose of displaying my new magazine, but it collapsed under the load of the blow-in subscription cards. My life is less glorious as a result. __________________ Want to be a seller on bonsaiAUCTIONS? Get authorized today! bonsaiTALK: Over 100,005.36 Megabytes Served this Month!

I will soon be contacting Bill Valavanis to try to complete the collection and subscribe going forward. __________________ Chris Johnston "She was a critic, and lots fo critics who aren't called to do what they write about grow jealous and mean and small in their disappointment." - Stephen King, Duma Key Sashi-no-eda.blogspot.com

I've signed up for a Bonsai Focus subscription and ordered the 2006 issues to tide me over since it's bi-monthly. thanks again, Steve __________________ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "You are lost the instant you know what the result will be." - Juan Gris ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- www.bonsaix.com
