I don't know, Maxim, FHM, SI, etc. don't seem to have a problem
reaching young readers. I think the perception of Playboy as "your
father's magazine" is what needs to change. The reality is the almost
5 million of Playboy's readers are between 18-34, and that Playboy
draws more men 18-24 than any other men's mag.

Re Brad's observation, does anybody fear that the problem is that young
people won't read anything, at least not in printed form? e-mails, cell
phones, rap, reality TV grab attention, but the print media in general seem
to be in deep doodoo.

I hope not, but I really wonder.
