My column on Veronica
Here is the link to today's column:
https://omaha.com/lifestyles/cleveland-evans-like-elvis-costello-asks-has-veronica-gone-to-hide/article_d8c3fdb2-b37e-11ed-9d93-07a50e1eb22b.html
I did NOT write the sentence about Elvis Costello's song "propping up" Veronica. That was inserted by an editor. Obviously somebody at the newspaper is a big fan of that song. Though the song is a great example of the use of the name, it did NOT particularly "prop up" the use of the name. If anything, the drop in Veronica between 1989 and 1990 was bigger than average. So I am a little miffed at them introducing a minor inaccuracy into what I wrote.

Please try it again now.
That's very annoying that they added it and made your article less accurate. I also had no idea about the plant connection!
The name Veronica really reminds me of the movie Heathers.
