Extreme Rocketry has lost its mojo....

Wow - cool! I may try to find that. Not that I could actually *build* one, mind you...

Were the little rockets "Extremely Small" ???

The word "Extreme" is like the word "temperature" or "quality". It is meaningless by itself. You must state what type of "extreme" you are talking about.

I can have matter with high temperature or low temperature (and then we have to ask "in relation to what?").

I can produce items with high quality or low quality - but just saying I produce 'quality products' is meaningless. They could all be low quality.

Nano tech is extreme.

Are you an extremist?

It has had intermittent spurts of extreme but basically, it never had it.

AMEN

You are correct. However, I don't think that is what comes to most peoples minds when they think of Extreme Rocketry.

ALso what's up with having more than one copy of the same picture in an issue?

:) and

Amen.

I don't think so. Rights have been revoked last I checked.

It looks like all the magazines are running out of content. Are you convinced the market has shrunk yet?

Yep.

Seriously, look at HPR. Unless you are Brucie's pal & want to support him or, subscribe just to support the cause in some minor way, why would you subscribe? I admit that it occasionally has some good stuff but with Bruce being Bruce & chiseling the value out of it every chance he gets, I don't think it's worth it.

Extreme Rocketry is a lame magazine with a cool name. ER has no clue of what an in depth article is. It contains lots of big pictures. Someone that knew hwat they were doing could convey the same graphics in a more efficient package to allow the addition of graphics or space for articles. Also some people outright resent having to pay for a magazine that begs for money for personal things. I don't care for it myself, but with the situation Brent is in, I guess he'll do whatever he can. I understand it & wish he weren't in the situation but that's about it.

Sport Rocketry just keeps putting along. It is the best of the rocketry magazines and it's free (with NAR membership.)

At least it comes out, is the size a magazine should be and always has good content.

You are not exactly a neutral obsever here. When you kiss Brent goodnight, tell him he's only a few pages away from being all black & white.

I've only submitted 1 article to this point but it was a little long for the space available, (which I understand, it was long) and I'm still working to reduce it and still have the main content.

The latest edition that I got last week was pretty good and mine always comes on time. I think Mr. Beach does a very nice job.

Well . . . Ray . . . ?

I forgot to mention HPR Magazine is a friggin joke!

Unfortunately, we d>AMEN Brother PREACH on!

I did not know that HPR was still in publication. I have not seen it at the book stores in over a year. A shame really. If he had put out a magazine on schedule he could have been sitting pretty with a loyal customer base.
