The Special Preparedness Issue will be mailed to subscribers Monday. Our Wisconsin printer, which does the mailing, sent us six advance copies Friday. Midstate subscribers can expect their issue this week, while both coasts will probably get theirs next week.

An important note for new subscribers (if you signed up in the last two weeks): You will have to wait a bit longer to get your issue as it takes time to get your name in our system. We’ll mail your first issue from our Oregon office after we get our bulk quantities from the printer in about a week. In the future, you’ll get your new issue sent directly from the printer.

This new issue will take about two weeks to reach the newsstands where I predict it will sell out in a week. The demand for it has been very heavy.
