I love my cast iron cook ware...I have found the less you mess with it the better...for the most part: grease, wipe it out, gently soak it in warm water if it's horribly dirty and gently wash with a cloth then rinse, then grease it up right away (only had to clean this way a couple of times though)
Love the old Wagner and Griswold iron.

I haven't had that great of luck with cast iron. Also, (yes I'm lazy) I hate the amount of care that it requires.
On a side note, I was reading an article recently, and they had a great point (paraphrasing) Cast iron, while non-stick, will never be as non-stick as Teflon. After all, Teflon is so nonstick, that they had to invent a special process just to get it to bond to the pan.

ET, I agree about Teflon, can't beat it. The thing I learned about my cast iron is that I really need to get it warmed up pretty well before I cook with it, keep it greased, and don't clean it harshly.
Besides a Cast Iron frying pan is an awesome home defense weapon in a pinch.
