This editor sincerely regrets the publication of the single item that appeared in yesterday’s column that was said to have taken place one year ago today. Due to a clerical error in this publication’s records, the event in question took place on the same date one year ago in May rather than in April. Further, it seems we have nothing to suggest that happened one year ago from yesterday.

Surely something did take place one year ago yesterday. People were born, died, married, graduated, incarcerated. However we have no social contact with any of those people and it is no concern of ours. We will be properly reporting the erroneous item from yesterday’s column at the proper day next month. Please accept our apologies for this inconvenience.
