way back when we did consider & discuss distribution via news agencies & the like, but we decided at the time the issues of selling enough copies, printing a zillion copies in the first place & then dealing with returns of unsold copies was not justified.

Crux is a fantastic product operating in a difficult market. a bunch of volunteers all with their own full-time commitments, trying to run a commercial business just became too difficult in the end. Its a shame it didn't last longer, but as Neil said, the 7 issues that were produced turned out great. There were always things we wanted to improve for the next issue, but everyone involved was happy to have their name associated with the finished product. The rave reviews & positive comments from the readers were certainly appreciated!
