What a coincidence, I've been buying ELLE since the 70s, too. (In '75, I had a Latin test I hadn't studied for AT ALL. That morning, a girl I knew asked me to hold her stuff. Well, one of the things she had was an ELLE magazine and it sat under my desk when I took the Latin test. Incredibly, I got an A on the test. Since then, whenver I've wanted some good luck, I've picked up a copy of the magazine. Sadly, it hasn't helped me win any big lottery jackpots. But I have come to enjoy the fashion models and, occassionally, an article or two.)
Next month, I'll read the articles a little more carefully, to see if they continue to do interesting stuff.

Thanks for the heads up. (I just won $20 on a scratch off ticket -- perhaps I'll invest in a book...)
By a seemingly pointless (but kind of scary) coincidence, just before I did the self-search and saw your post to me, I had just finished putting up ANOTHER story pulled from ELLE -- Beauty May Not Pave The Way To Success (It's not like I post stories from Elle all the time -- this was only my second one. And it comes the instant before you respond to my first one... I have no idea what this kind of synchronicity means, but it makes me nervous.)
