- Not saying your word cannot stand alone, I'd like to add, that this
- is a 'fact' as far as I know - most 'interest' magazines have at least
- a 3 month delay. I've always wondered, why 3 months ? (not opposed to
- 'one week' but let's say two months, for example). Where is the bottleneck,
- that makes it necessary with so much time.
