And I did.

Several mortgage companies and a crapload of ducks send their thanks.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. One more day without having to get real jobs!

Somehow I feel that a crapload of ducks is not a figurative measurement but a literal one.

Can we still negotiate 10-year renewals?

It would be my third one.

Are those standard or metric ducks?

Is there somewhere on the website that will tell us how much longer our subscription runs? I have a 10 year but no clue how much longer it lasts.

First one, then the other.

Fixed that for you.  We will deal with their ability to carry coconut shells later.

Sorry, but we don't offer 10-year subscriptions anymore--it's just too hard to forecast paper and postage prices that far out. We do have auto-renewal, though, and don't increase pricing with every renewal like most (every?) other publishing company. (This approach baffles our fulfillment house).

You can check your subscription status here, though fair warning it's been a bit buggy in recent weeks as we port everything over to a new system that's from the current millennium.

I come here because I will find Futurama and Monty Python references mixed together in one thread.

I just renewed for another year 5 minutes ago.  (The paper envelope has been sitting with my bills for a few months, the notice arrives quite early.)

Much appreciated, best of luck on the debugging.

Considering I just received an issue of GRM recently, I'll go by the date not the status.

(Trust me, debugging new software has been the bane of my work existence for awhile, I get the headache)

And got the newest issue yesterday with "your next issue will be your LAST!" gloom and doom cover.  I'm assuming it just hasn't caught up in the system yet from 9/7.

Thanks for the link, Tom.

My 10 year sub had lapsed. I re-upped for another 3 and added a year of Classic to the sub as well. I'm spending more time with old cars than I am with performance cars.
