Correct.

Frankly, we haven't quite decided yet. It really depends upon the amount of
interest we see. If thousands of folks want the magazine...it'll be cheap.
If hundreds want it...it'll be expensive.
I don't wish to go into depth regarding market research and such, but you've
already done the math on the absolute most a 12 month subscription will cost
at cover price.

Second paragraph on the site, last line. Monthly. And we've announced it
before. I'll look at altering the web site to make this more noticable.
Thank you for the heads-up.

Thats a charter offer for you...save a bunch by taking a chance. If you
aren't comfortable with this, please don't purchase a subscription to Bricks
until you have an issue in your hands. We don't want to cause
discomfort...we just want to produce a great publication for the enthusiasts.
Thanks for your interest and comments,
Matt
