Anthologies and links

I was thinking, again, about Unexpected Magic, the Diana Wynne Jones anthology I read last week. And what a pain in the butt anthologies are when you’ve been buying them as long as I have (I hope I’m not alone in this, or you’re all going to find this very boring).
The thing is, I’ve been buying SF and fantasy since the early seventies. I have “best of” anthologies, author anthologies and theme anthologies (the Flashing Swords and Weird Heroes series, for instance). And even among single-author anthologies, there’s lot of overlap.
For example, I previously had three DWJ anthologies, Mixed Magic, Warlock at the Wheel and Minor Arcana, all of which included “Sage of Theare” and two of which included “Warlock at the Wheel.” The new anthology covers all the stories in the second and third volume and has no overlap with Mixed Magic. Unfortunately, it doesn’t include “True State of Affairs” so do I get the hard-to-find volume that does or wait until a Complete Shorts comes out some day?
The same problem comes up with other authors: Almost any new anthology of Robert E. Howard of Roger Zelazny is going to overlap with my existing anthologies. Do I want to spend the money to upgrade to newer versions when I already have most of the stories? Or just live with not having a complete collection (I suppose it’s a good sign I can live with it——in younger days that would be torture)?
Okay, now more links:
•Black Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain observes that the name of Rick Perry’s “niggerhead” hunting lodge should have been changed long ago. Repubs, as detailed here, are shocked and appalled … at Cain. Meanwhile, Michelle Bachmann blames the Arab Spring on Obama, and yes, I do mean blamed, as she apparently considers overthrowing dictators a bad thing (in fairness, lots of people in Washington think overthrowing dictators who work for us a bad thing).
•Fred Clark discusses the possible effect of millenial thinking and Antichrist on conservatives.
Update: Almost forgot, Pandagon adds to the Herman Cain debate.
