Has anyone received the new Coin World with the new look/format?

I have not received an issue of Coin World in about two weeks (I know, it's the post office's fault). I am jones-ing for those edge-of-your-seat letters to the editor, as well as the always relevant and insightful editorials. I know that the new and improved format for CW will start in November, but I have not received it yet. Has anyone received the paper in the new format? If so, what do you think of it?

Why? What was wrong with the old format? Sounds like fixing something that ain't broken.

It looks great -- I think it will be viewed as a positive change.
Except now I have to go get a color photo taken of myself ... which means I actually have to shave today

I like the idea of modernizing the weekly periodical, just like I prefer a refrigerator rather than an icebox.
Real entrepreneurs do not shave (unless they want to).

<< <i>They sent a mock-up of the new style using text from a recent issue to their columnists and major advertisers. I'm shocked I haven't seen one of those previews on eBay yet.

You're shaving yet?

Gee...next thing you know my next Supreme Court brief for an Amicus Curiae in support of the plaintiff will be on 6-1/2 x9-1/2 paper (!) with a blue (!) cover.

Ha! I'm Italian and Croatian. I've been shaving since I was 10.
Which is a year later than my sister.
Kidding!
Maybe you anti-establishment types think my new Coin World column photo should be one from when I was a collegiate dirty-footed hippie.

<< <i>The last issue I received looked like it had been trimmed with a chain saw. Is this the new format you're referring to? >>
ya i think it's the same size as nn now.
I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment
