Thanks, that time frame sounds right.
Man, I loved that magazine. Also a kind of newsletter or mini-magazine called "Algorithm" (or Algorithms). I think that's where I first came across Metaphone, which I implemented in several different languages just for fun. I also tweaked it to take account of the relatively high proportion of Ukrainian names in the region, mostly because my mom was of Ukrainian descent.
Ok, enough reminiscing. I've taken us way off topic! :)
