that pegged Oklahoma as one of the ten most depressed (psychologically) states.
That's probably because of the 3.2 beer.....
Actually, that's damn interesting. I lived in Duncan, OK for 16 years before moving here, and the culture is very similar in the two places. I attributed the depression I suffered from up there more to working for Halliburton than to the state....

Btw, did you read about the FYI which may have been a factor in the resignation? Sometimes attitude matters.
And how does one determine "attitude" from the letters FYI added electronically to an email? That's apparently all Comer did to the email about Dr Forrest's talk. Well, that and hit the "Forward" and "Send" buttons.
