>Charge $5 per issue and refuse to take ads.<
You have some good ideas, but I will just address this one. If
a magazine didn't accept ads, a cover price of $5 will not even
begin to cover the costs of staff, production, printing, paper,
and distribution. $25/issue would be closer to the mark, meaning
that the readers who would most benefit from content along the
lines you suggest would not be likely to buy it.
