She gave me issue numbers, but not dates. We also just received the next issue, with a number and date, so here's what I've pieced together: Michael Jordan issue: no.6 (Feb 17) Swimsuit issue: no.7 (Winter 2003) If your system, like ours, needs a month and day, give it an arbitrary date. Baseball Spring Training issue: no.8 (Feb 24) Max Schenk, I applaud your efforts to look carefully, repeatedly, through the Swimsuit issue to find the number. Dirty work, but someone has to do it, right? In answer to your question, yes, we do put it out on the shelf. Of course, we are a women's college, so we don't worry about it disappearing or being cut up for pin-ups. I always half-expect one of our ultra-feminist students to object to it, but that hasn't happened. My objections to the issue are two: the hassle created by its not having printed enumeration and date chronology, and the ghastly smell of the perfume ads. Lynne N.

Yanno, I kept looking through that swimsuit issue for the chronology and enumeration info, but...just...couldn't....seem...to....find...it. A student suggested that it may be on one of the models' swimsuits and maybe a fresh set of eyes might find it...no luck, despite repeated attempts. We'll keep looking in the meantime.. :-) On a related note, though: does anyone out there actually put this issue out on the shelves? We keep it behind the desk, where it is seldom requested. Amazing: because of that, when it comes bindery time, the Swimsuit Issue is consistently the one issue of SI that DOESN'T have missing pages or cutouts.

I have sent an e-mail and left a phone message (took three phone calls to get to the right place to even leave a message) requesting such information for both this issue and the following one. When (if?) I receive a response, I'll forward it to the rest of you. Lynne N.
