I used to take past issues to retirement homes, but they stopped accepting them. Now, of course, they couldn't accept them for health/safety reasons. (There are no magazines in the doctors' offices or in-flight).
Apologies to the many excellent articles on other topics, but I can read those online.
Somebody should be keeping all this stuff for research reasons. I'm sure people will be writing about this strange period in our history for decades to come. I wish them luck in figuring it out. (If civilization continues, of course.)
Speaking of excellent writing, the Salman Rushdie fiction in the latest issue is a really good allegory. He still has the gift!
