YES! Send me a free issue of Seed.
If I like what I see, I'll receive 5 more issues (6 in all) for just $14.95. That's 50% off the cover price! If I'm not completely satisfied, I'll simply write "cancel" on the invoice and owe nothing. The free issue is mine to keep.

Still OT: Wow, he died! I thought about him last week, when people were covering the paper folding myth. He did an episode on that - I'm sad to say that he bought into the myth though. I actually thought he was already dead. :-(

No He is NOT dead. He will live forever in our hearts!
