838.0. "What have all the Analogs gone? Far, far away..." by ZPOAC6::HWCHOY (DU:IT here I come!) Fri Nov 03 1989 14:26

    I recently thought of subscribing Analog, so I went out to buy a copy
    so I can get an order form. Surprise to say that I have not been able
    to find any Analog at any newstands or bookshops. What has happened to
    Analog? I live in Singapore.

    As far as I know, Analog is alive and well. I know the people at
    Davis and they have had no problems they have mentioned to me. I
    suspect there is probably a far eastern distribution problem. Or
    maybe it's suddenly become very popular.
    
    Is it translated to chinese or some other language over there?

    come come! it'd be like eating sphagetti with indian curry!
    
    but seriously, practically everybody (discounting toddlers and ol'
    nannies without tooth) speaks English. Actually there is a whole
    spectrum ranging from the Queen's variety to the local adaptation aka
    Singlish.
    
    oh well! I'll just have to wait for the next month :(

    If it continues to be a problem, I think we can get someone to send it
    to you, { after being read, reread, etc. } . This way you won't get
    withdrawl problems!!
    
    Drop a mail gram if you require a shipment.

    re :.3
    
    if you're offering to send me back issues, I'd gladly take it. Of
    course I wouldn't know how to reimburse you for postage. But anyway my
    DEC mailstop is ZPO and the office address is:
    
    	Choy Heng-Wah
    	Digital Equipment Singapore
    	73 Bukit Timah Road
    	#06 Tong Nam Building
    	Singapore 0922.
    
    But sending me the subscription form will also me most appreciated. BTW
    I'd like the subs form where I can pay by VISA or AMEX. Too much
    trouble running to the bank to buy a draft.
    
    Thanx again!
