I wish Playboy would take a page from The New Yorker, which does not have
cover lines on subscriber issues, and has a kind of transparent half-page in
a vellum-type paper with coverlines on the newstand issues. With news that
fiction is probably disappearing, I guess it's an indication that's a pipe
dream on my part. (Dropping fiction is a BAD idea.
