I am a long time subscriber (30+ years) and have a reoccurring subscription. The same holds true to TAS. In these very contagious times, would it kill the management to put the magazine in a plastic bag of sorts? I received my May issue last week and immediately disinfected the front and back of said magazine. Everything smeared on both covers and I also let it sit outside on my deck for 3 days before I felt safe to read it
All of this to be safe from the Covid-19 Virus! It would have been easier to open the bag and remove the magazine, wash hands and enjoy with both covers intact. In your defense, I received my TAS today and it was not in a bag either. I am asking to request the publisher to put the magazines in some kind of protective cover until this nightmare passes?

most of us...very hard to explain why you're mad, even if you're not mad..."
