30 years ago is a bit strong... maybe 20-25. 1995 Computer Shopper was going strong, Wired had only been around for a couple years. Music and woodworking mags were still decent... no, I think the 90s was a great magazine time.

"There’s an underground parking garage for the residents, but half of it is empty and filled with 20-30-year-old cars whose owners are no longer known." Of all the great information, that's the bit that sticks in my mind for
