My pleasure. It gives me an excuse to read selected portions more carefully - with a critical eye on the questions and on the answers. Judge Alito is doing a positively incredible job. I am awestruck by the breadth and depth of his command.
And in the tough venue of "no notes and all questions are in bounds," he has given only a couple answers that don't fully satisfy my sense of "the way it ought to be," and I think I'm one of the toughest customers out here ;-)
You're absolutely right about the value in reading the transcripts. And I'm very impressed with the judge. I also think he has the patience of Job :)
