Hopefully the Retro Sundays series is something you can easy skip over and ignore. Thanks again for your thoughts.<br /><br />DKDanielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02388302796031288076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37886248.post-71164645021973431822011-07-04T11:54:55.908-07:002011-07-04T11:54:55.908-07:00I'm a long term reader and I've read all y...I'm a long term reader and I've read all your archives.

Thank you. <br /><br />Finally, from those of you who have made self-effacing comments about leaving belated comments here, please don't worry. I still get (and always read) comments from articles written years ago. I am always grateful for the feedback and thoughts--who cares that they're not instantaneous! :) <br /><br />DKDanielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02388302796031288076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37886248.post-12149201358002032732011-06-30T08:40:34.162-07:002011-06-30T08:40:34.162-07:00I like them.

Still, I feel it would be nice to have one more actual post a week; that way, half of the new posts in a week are both your content and new content.Farvananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37886248.post-58822571224964745492011-06-19T13:09:51.755-07:002011-06-19T13:09:51.755-07:00Even though I've read your entire blog, I stil...Even though I've read your entire blog, I still scan the Retro Sunday links in case there's something interesting that I want a refresher on.

After 3 years of reading CK, I've seen "recycled" articles that weren't of interest the first time because of our place in life, which have now become Godsends (groundnut stew anyone?).
