I've copied the following message from the Piper Owner's forum. I felt it was important to all of us. If you elect to follow up, I encourage tact since the other type response is exactly what Time's management hopes to see.
All the best,

If you havent already heard, Time magazine had a cover with 2 small GA aircraft in front of nuclear power plant with a caption stating
'Remember when only environmentalist where worried about this?' This a blaten, poorly educated attack of the GA community. If you visit
www.aopa.org you can see how the President of the AOPA responded. Pilots have been canceling their subscription to Time in protest.
AOPA is also asking that you make your voices heard towards this situation. You can contact the editors of Time at
eileen_naughton@timeinc.com ed_mccarrick@timeinc.com
Please make your voices heard! The resent events of 9/11 and the medias reaction to Aviation in general is not good. The last thing we need
is poorly informed information spreading. Recent studies have shown a fully loaded 767 could not penetrate a nuclear reactor which makes
the idea of a GA aircraft penetrating a reactor that much more far fetched. I know several boards have been sending e-mails about their
thoughts, lets do the same!
