I only find it amusing, not hilarious. Many (a large majority) of caseplays in the casebook have been published, virtually unchanged, since I started officiating thirty-seven years ago, with no change (except maybe a case number). Are they no longer valid?
Granted, caseplays disappear as old rules are changed, but are we to ignore the ones that hang around?
Some caseplays disappear with no explanation (which is probably what Rich is talking about). Were they removed because they were no longer valid, or were they removed because of space considerations? "Ay there's the rub" (Hamlet', Act 3 Scene 3, Billy Shakespeare).
