also determine when you receive your first magazine. If you joined prior to the mailing list being sent to the printer, you would receive the current issue (September). If you joined after the mailing list had been sent to the printer, your first issue would be the next issue (December). The mailing list usually goes to the printer several weeks before they are printed & mailed (ie: mailing list for the latest magazine was probably sent to the printer in mid-August or so).

Make any sense??
