Here is an article on cast iron.
It dispels some of the myths regarding usage and maintenance.
I love that it says, "I was reading in The Grapes of Wrath [how] Ma Joad carried a cast-iron skillet across the Dust Bowl. You think of the pioneers going across the Plains, if they had a cast-iron skillet they weren’t worried about using special techniques to clean it or the right type of salt to scrub it. They would throw it in a creek.”
“It’s incredibly durable cookware. I think it’s almost ironic that cast iron has gotten this perception as being very hard to maintain because it is truthfully one of the easiest things you can own.”
