An unreasonable man (but my wife says that's redundant!)

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all
progress depends on the unreasonable man.

yes, it will. and since this was not addressed in any
of the decisions, it is hanging out there that whether
this is really a appropreiate use of article 3 powers.
one of these federal judges should have at least
mentioned it. but it was just left out there.
