Gene Grant

When I first read the email titled "Gene Grant on mental health" I thought it was going to be about funding received for a genetic study on brain disorders. But Gene Grant is an actual person with an actually bad haircut. (I generally like dredlocks, but those two sticking straight out of your forehead, Gene? Not working.)

Grant is a columnist for the Albuquerque Tribune. (Is Albuquerque not the most awkwardly spelled city? I had to cut and paste just to make this parenthetical remark.) His column doesn't have much of a point. But he's right to raise the issue of the mental health of Colleen Nestler, the woman who sued David Letterman for sending her coded messages.
