 * I want to insert a post retrospectively. But I can only add a new post and it
   goes to the top of the list. I want to insert new posts further down the list.
   Can I do this?

 * Assuming your posts are in reverse chronological order, just edit the post and
   change the date/time in the [publish box](http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_Posts#Descriptions_of_Post_Fields)
   or in Posts>Edit>’Hover’ a Post Title>Quick Edit.
