It's like you should be writing my blog sometimes. I just wanted to point out that I did make the observation that Mad has survived because it has a constant refueling resource - kids - who aren't up on Mad's voice. They are outside of everything, so Mad always has a chance to reach them (though less and less now - in the world of Nickelodeon).<br /><br />I have to admit one of the reasons why I focused on Mad was because it was mentioned in the book and it didn't entirely jibe to me. I would have asked about Private Eye, but sadly, I've never read a copy of it. I actually know a husband of a good friend who is a collector of them, so I really have no excuse other than my media diet is incredibly full. Hey Mike, great comments as always.
