Interesting article! Not at all the kind of magazine you'd expect to be launched by Kathy Keeton (wife of the guy who published Playboy). Somehow that makes its success all the more impressive. She certainly had her finger on the pulse of popular science. Sadly, Kathy died only a year or so after the magazine folded. I wonder if anyone's ever tried to revive it? It was certainly a fantastic and highly original magazine.
