It's Ba-ack!

There's an editorial in The New England Journal of Medicine defending lobotomies:

In an editorial in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine, Dr. Barron H. Lerner, a medical historian and associate professor at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, wrote that the procedure was a desperate effort to help mental patients and that only a small number of patients became calmer and more manageable.

This looks more suspicious when we recall the Berkeley study of conservatism. Suddenly, Scientology doesn't seem so bad.
