>>Someone asked how could they join MCN
 
-- And there was a reply to mail a check to Silver Spring.
 
It would be a great convenience for those of us outside the United States if the
MCN would take renewals by VISA; for American subscriptions I have to go to the
bank and get a money order, paying an $8 surcharge; besides which, going to the
bank is something I never do in these days of the automated teller. My MCN
membership expired some months ago and the renewal slip is still sitting in my
pile of stuff to get around to some day; if they took VISA and renewed by
e-mail, I would be back in the fold (or is it the staple and mutilate?) It seems
a bit archaic to have to mail a check to a computer publication in this day and
age.
