I don’t subscribe to Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate and I can’t buy a "back copy" until the issue I want, the current one that covers New York wines, actually becomes a back copy. So what do I do?

Any suggestions? UPDATE: Thank you to the readers who helped me get my hands on the goods! I can’t thank you…
