Not long ago I happened upon a 1970 copy of Ellery Queen. The stories were much shorter than those that EQ is printing now -- and they were much better, too.

It's a rare magazine story these days that I don't condense by reading until I get bored before reading the last page. Sometimes that means first paragraph and last page! If my sister and my spouse didn't also read them, I'd stop subscribing to EQ and Alfred Hitchcock. (I also no longer notice any difference between the two magazines.)

I read every last one of the old stories all the way through, even though there were more of them to the issue.
