But now it’s all good. Instead of Gleason, UO has a new communications VP, Kyle Henley. And now Greg Bolt is in charge of Around the O. And it’s way better. No more Klinger crap. No more potentially defamatory posts from Tim Gleason. And lots of interesting science reporting from Jim Barlow:

It’s sort of creeping me out, can you make Gleason a little smaller?
Sorry, fixed.
No. It still needs less Gleason
