My parents subscribed to it and through the ‘60s and ‘70s it was a great source of scientific articles.

Scientific American got politicized.

I cancelled my subscription when they gave Obama a "Most Influential in Science" award in 2009.

Yeah, that would tear it for me too. The least literate boob to ever sit in the 0val 0ffice couldn’t tell you how a baking soda submarine works.

Well they did have the cover of the Afghan Girl. That was the high point of their existence.

An amazing pic, but she looks nothing like that now.

Yep, she's a very old looking woman now.

But I think she's in her late 40s.

They tracked her down, and she lives in some poor village.

She also had some good things to say about the Taliban.

For this to have any weight one must first accept the premise that any action whatsoever could impact the earth’s natural climactic fluctuations in even the slightest manner.

Thank you, pogo!

Exactly as described.

And I have a hunch that she's even more wizened and wrinkled.

That story was from 2002.
