In the "Ah-hah Moment" column, I doubt the first caption should read "Stackable boxes from foamcore makes shelving projects easy."

Please download a fresh copy. That error was  corrected a few hours after initial release and a new download notice was sent.

I am still not seeing the october issue on my download page (the one I access from my profile link).
Usually I see one number 000 or at the end, I've checked both the top and the bottom of the list and can't see it. 
It looks like my sub started last march or april, so I think it should still be going. I thought I just needed to wait a bit more, but Yarron apparently has it already so sorry if it's on the way. I got an email announcing the free MRH, but no email for RE yet (but I think I only get those when it gets updated after initial publication to fix bugs)

I also have not gotten the e-mail notification.  Nor is it available when I click my download link. 

Me thinks there is some kind of glitch in the subscription system...

It appears Photo 15 in the Ethanol Plant article is a duplicate of Photo 11, and not a picture of the BLI trckmobile.

That's weird.  The message thread looks like  EW and I replied to ourselves.  😳  

 Thanks to whomever for fixing the issue with our subscriptions.

We just edit your post and add a quote comment in red at the bottom that starts with MRH. Otherwise, our reply risks getting lost somewhere down the thread …

Not entirely sure what this "older subscription" is supposed to look like.  I've had a RE subscription since Nov 2018, the email link came through as usual, and the current issue shows as 000.MRH.   Am I missing something here?

No, that is a current and active subscription. The current issue will always be 000 to put it at the top of the list (the filename itself will have the proper number). After the next month (ex. November) is posted, the previous month (ex. October) will get its proper number and drop to the bottom of the list.

An older subscription would be from before the time that you got all the back-issues with your subscription, so some people were on subscriptions that were "missing" issues prior to their subscribing. And what with various specials it created a whole bunch of subscription types, each one of which had to be touched each month. By simplifying down to fewer subscription types, Joe has less chance of missing something.

Photo 15 in the article  LINCOLNLAND AGRI-ENERGY ETHANOL TOMA page 12, is not the BLI Track mobile as the caption states, but a copy of photo 11 on page 6.

MRH: This was corrected several days ago now. Please re-download.

Hi,  Don't think I received the link to the Running Extra site.   I am a registered subscriber, am I not?
Thanks, Dana Vincent   dana.vincent49@yahoo.com
