«Great photos, Liberal agenda driven contents»
I have been a subscriber to National Geographic since mid 1990s when I was back in Iran. I remember receiving this good magazine with pictures being marked or censored by postal authorities in Islamic Iran yet I loved it. However, this magazine has really lost its once proud tradition of presenting fair and true scientific contents and has replaced it with some liberal agenda driven stuff like promoting nonsense like global warming, world peace and getting anti-U.S rhetoric/politics involved when writing about other nations like their past issue that was dedicated to Iran. All in all, this magazine is good in terms of first rate photographies. 3/5

«Still The Gold Standard»
I have loved National Geographic since my uncle (a teacher) thought is would make a good birthday gift when I was younger. He started me on a lifetime of finding magazines like National Geographic.
Though I have other magazines, National Geographic remains my favorite and the standard of magazines. Though it has changed somewhat through the years, the one thing that always remains is the imagery.
The photographs range from breathtaking, inspirational, educational and heartbreaking and are often more than that. The efforts photographers undertake are incredible. (The special issue of 100 Best Photographs is amazing) and seeing the images in print is the best way to see these. Though you may see the images on the web, they are not quite the same.
Dinosaurs, space, astronomy, history and so much more. Special and worth having as you will find yourself going back to revisit stories and riveting images.

«Having a Problem Changing Billing Address»
I ordered this magazine for my son on 6/22/08. He has yet to receive his first issue and now has a new address. I'm having a terrible time trying to correct the shipping address.
