Followed a link to a story in the San Francisco Chronicle. It had this priceless line: "By itself, the finding does not immediately point to a way to prevent graying hair....Moreover, the researchers said they're more interested in curing cancer." Well I should hope so!
But the sweet deadpan nature amuses me so -- that the director of the Dana-Farber program in melanoma has to flat-out say "Preventing the greying of hair is not our goal," to a host of interviewing newspeople who are surely already drawing up in their minds lists of sexy grey-haired stars.
A gem of journalistic spin.

If you have a subscription (I don't): the findings are reportedly published in Science. May be titled "Three Grey Mice", authors include David Fisher.

For my part: Ariela is pro white hair, because it makes it easier to color!
I am also pro preventing cancer.
cheers!
