Not too long ago I sent in a subscription card under the condition that I 
would get a free issue and have no further obligation.  It said to write
CANCEL on the bill when it arrived and return it, which I did.  They continued
to send bills saying that I owed them money.  I just ignored the letters
and they eventually gave up.  The moral of the story?: just don't listen
to them when they start to threaten you--it's usually just a ploy to make you
feel guilty enough to subscribe.
