The fourth issue, Vol. 1 Issue 4, of The Mathematica Journal was dated
"Spring 1991," because the preceeding issue, V1I3, was dated "Winter 1991."
In publishing-land, the seasons of a year usually go Winter (Jan-Mar) -> Spring
(Apr-Jun) -> Summer (Jul-Sep) -> Fall (Oct-Dec). Actually, I believe that
V1I4 came out either late spring or early summer 1991. By that method, the
new issue that you'll all be receiving over the next couple of weeks, Vol. 2
Issue 1, should have been dated "Winter 1992" -- we decided not to put a
date on it, however.
 
The Macintosh electronic supplement for V1I4 consisted of _two_ disks. Yes,
several people only received half; if that's the case, you should contact
Craig Johnson @ 415-905-2376 and ask him to send out the other disk.
