[Coco] Magazines and Indexes

[Paul Fitch]

I'm glad you like it.  Remember the following tho:

1) the 10 years of Rainbow and ROD in your copy of the database do not have
any of the extra fields filled out yet.  So most of your searchs are going
to shoot right past those entries. That's about 6700 articles and reviews.

2) All of the magazines referenced in the database are availabe right now on
Malted Medias FTP site

The finished product will be posted to the Malted FTP site
