“Popular Science”? I remember glancing at that as a kid, when my dad would take me to the local barber for what was euphemistically called a “haircut”. Seemed like PS was about on a par with Grit Magazine in terms of credibility. You know, how to build your own flying car with iron shavings or your own working backyard nuclear reactor with Popsicle sticks, and the like.

Has anything changed since then (about “Popular Science”, I mean)?

Your memory is faulty.

What has changed is, the current editor is a partisan shill — besides the constant “green” and AGW hoax harping that they do now, there was an entire issue devoted to Al Gore. I won’t be renewing, which is too bad, my dad was also a subscriber, and it was always around when I was a kid.
