Wasn’t this week’s column a rerun?In that case, Ed, could you dig up some topic from way back that was never in a book?

Never mind, I did read the new column. But enough about vampires. I do seem to remember a few columns that looked like ones I’ve seen before, so it’s not clear if you ever run the same one again. Of course Cecil is entitled to vacation too.  
The Archive search works pretty well, but there’s been a lot of topics and I can’t remember them all. However, there are a lot of posts in the General section that indicate that some people NEVER read Cecil’s columns!
