Walked in there last night. No DRF. No Milk Bone.

Ay, que vida tan cruel.
That sucks, I feel bad for Bubba it's probably something
he looked forward to doing when he got close to the gas
station, knowing he's going to get nice snack. When times
change it's usually for the worse.

Bruce,

Get a hold of DRF distribution department. Or Marc Attenberg. There is no reason the station can't get reserved copies of the Form with the delivery of their other papers. Ask the manager and tell him you'll pay a 'subscription' monthly and I'm sure they'll bring it in for you.

Our Customer Service Center operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Representatives can be reached via e-mail at cservice@drf.com or via telephone at 1-800-306-FORM (3676).

Thx, Steve. I'll try it. The new owner says he dropped it because people were "stealing" the Forms as well as the NYTimes. I asked him why he couldn't keep them behind the counter and he said he had no room because he was expanding the phone card line. Great; ten more ways to call Armenia for $.30 a minute I don't need ... certainly not at the expense of the DRF and Sunday NYT. But thanks again fir the info ... I'll check it out.
