Subscription to Popular Mechanics January 10, 2007 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
I've given this magazine to my son for many years. He looks forward to getting a new subscription each year for Christmas. It was an added bonus this time to be looking forward to the $5.00 bonus, however I would have purchased the magazine without it.
Popular Mechanics January 9, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
the fact that I ordered online meant that I didnt get full information about when the subscription (gift!) would start - I ordered in NOvember and the youngster who's gift it was (Christmas) got nothing in his stocking from his aunt and uncle. Bummer! when I called the company 800 # they told me that if I'd ordered direct with the company the customer service person would have told me that January was when the gift year would begin. All is well now that January has arrived but it wasn't fun for the gift recipent! Seems that disclosure ought to be the same whether one is ordering online thru Amazon or direct with the company.
The Editor is a Patriot September 12, 2006 12 out of 19 found this review helpful
Popular Mechanics is a great magazine. I've read it, off and on for years, but had just about forgotten about it. About a year ago a co-worker had a copy and in it the Editor wrote an open letter to the readers, it seems that someone was offended because he had ads for handguns in the magazine. I was so impressed with his backbone to stand up against the politically correct crowd, that I subscribed to the magazine.
In the June 2004 edition of Popular Mechanics Mr. Oldham addressed the issue: As the editor, yes, I decide what will run and what will not. And yes, I enjoy the shooting sports and am a member of the National Rifle Association. I believe that the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees me, an individual, the right to own a firearm. Like most of the readers of Popular Mechanics I am generally a law-abiding citizen, have served in the armed forces of this country and am not a "gun nut". From letters I received, I think I'm pretty much in step with the majority of our readers. Knowing that I have the support of most of you reading this, I can tell you categorically that no amount of irate letters or whining or protesting will scare me into forcing gun articles out of these pages. It's part of our heritage. It's part of our editorial mission. And that's why we print articles on firearms. Let the letters begin. Till next time.
Very interesting! March 20, 2006 We love this magazine. It is very eclectic in it's subject matter and we have really enjoyed the variety.
Chock-Full of Information October 16, 2005 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I took a chance on this magazine approximately 1yr. ago and I am not sorry I did. It has a wealth of information covering almost anything mechanical and electrical. The how-to section is always informative and helpful, as well as, educational. I will continue this subscription indefinately.
Sincerely,
Tyrone
