I disagree. Leading a black suit is nuts, and leading a heart or

Charles,
give yourself this hand on the actual auction:
xxx
KJTx
KJ9xx
x
and ask yourself, would a club lead be 'nuts'?
Remember, Brunner did not double 7c even holding an ace, so one might
fairly conclude that the opponents are not off a fast trick (to be
sure, perhaps South is gambling with
AKQxxx
x
VOID
AQJxxx
or the like).
A club lead might be wrong, in the sense that it might allow the
contract to be made when a different lead might set it, but if you and
I were sitting at the table and you led a club, I would hardly
consider it nuts.
