A Connecticut company sells affordable (under $40) and working miniature replicas of the H & C Coffee and Dr Pepper signs, modeled after the famous not-working landmarks in dowtown Roanoke.

Rob Neukirch of Floyd spied the headline above last Tuesdayâs column â âIn defense of Reps. Ben Cline and Morgan Griffithâ â on his phone. It was accompanied by a sinking feeling.
He thought, âOh no, whatâs happened to Dan?â Neukirch wrote in an email. Then he read the rest of the column, which appeared five days after April 1.
âYou got me!â he wrote.
His missive was among scores emails, phone calls and online comments regarding the column. Which means itâs time for the April reader mailbag.
