Washington • We wish our departing colleague well. He worked very hard. And we should say, in his defense, he never stored any human corpses in the office refrigerator.
That he had a brown paper bag with a human head in it at home is, indeed, icky, but he never brought that bag to the office. All the brown bags he brought to the office contained office-appropriate substances.
When we heard what he had been accused of for definitely (definitely!) the first time, we were, of course, appalled and we express our deepest condolences to the families of all those as-yet-unidentified corpses.
