I definitely think issue 50 is a milestone
and should be recognized somehow.
One time, I don’t know exactly where,

Dear Editor;
Thank you for your continuing fine coverage of many fine trends and items that might have escaped my notice, had I not read about them in Giant Robot.

About your Tetris player-like editing skills, I am always amazed at how much data you are able to cram into every issue. My aging eyes are barely able to make out the helvetica 4 point anymore! It sort of reminds me of the microminiature comic strips that the cartoonists would squeeze into some page margins of Mad Magazine!

In answer to your query, "Five Oh" is for Hawaii. An "Aloha" issue would be nice. is this too obvious? perhaps a research trip for key staff of GR ...? Tax deductible!

good luck,

ps. what was in the box?
