What I get, aside from the fun of the give-and-take, is keeping up with the latest news in science. For years before I started doing this, I read Scientific American and thought I was keeping up. The net is more up to date, and there's a huge difference between 1) reading an article once and 2) reading it and spending the next two days arguing over it.

Formed any solid opinions from all the fun give-and-take and articles?

SA is a huge disappointment to me; it used to have fairly substantial science in it, now half of it is PC foolishness and Wired-style graphics. Sad. I haven't bought one in quite a while.
