Thanks, Todd! I'm enjoying the new issue of AHMM very much--some very strong stories in there.

You're quite welcome, Jack, and thanks for the heads-up on the AHMM...my most convenient bookstore/newsstand didn't have Any of the crime-fiction magazines on the racks at my last two visits...I assume they were still in the delivery boxes in the back...while having the fantastica and little magazines out already for similar sell-by dates. As a Limon fan, I would like a chance to read that story at very least.
