Well, sorry to be a pedant but actually the word mentalist is already taken; Mentalist- (N) Someone who uses mental acuity, hypnosis and/or suggestion. Sherlock Holmes was a part time mentalist, and Derren Brown is the best example of a modern day Mentalist, other than Patrick Jane!!

I know, i just like being a pedant lol. And i was trying to turn it on BBW's head so that he had not said a bad thing but said a good thing.
Not said a bad thing?! This isn't bad! This is merely preparing your poor souls to the inevitable mentalist advances!! Some have also said the a sign of a mentalist is someone who is a fan of WWE... (and I'm not talking about Wynyard-Wright & Ellis estate agents and surveyors. Although being fanatical about Wynyard-Wright & Ellis probably would mean you were a mentalist)
I'm not sure if this is a sensitive subject, indicating that your grandfather was unfortunately diagnosed with a debilitating illness... But, assuming ignorance and without meaning to offend, that is one of the best comments I have seen on this forum.
