How often do you see someone link to a old Cecil column these days? It used to happen all the time, now you may see it a couple of times a year. I’d be surprised if a younger crowd, which we need, have ever heard of Cecil Adams, or ever will.

Surprise!

Arizona to use Zyklon B to kill prisoners

I always thought the guillotine was dropped (haha) because concerns that the decapitated head remained conscious a few seconds after. Even the master, Cecil Adams, has admitted that it may be possible. "One can of course never be certain that anyone in this predicament is aware of his surroundings and realizes (briefly) what has happened to him. But I concede the possibility that he might.
