So I wrote a longish review of The Last Samurai, and Blogger decided to eat about 75% of it for some reason. I was struck with despair, and then a thought- might Google have cached it?

And sure enough, I was able to retrieve the entire article from Google, all 1172 words of it. Hooray!!

(Of course, the story implies the contrary about Blogger, but I shouldn’t complain about a free service. It might be impolite to note that Google’s a free service too.)
