Excellent find. I wonder why it took so long for this to show up.

Could it be because the Court's ruling was and is classified?

Should have read farther into the thread. Always a danger that not doing so will make you look like an idiot. Most of the ruling was not classified, only a brief section apparently containing the specifics of the case at hand.

At first I thought maybe it didn't come out until the Supreme Court had denied cert on the case, but I found that occurred in early 2003, so that's not the reason it took so long to show up either.

The case did show up on the ACLU's website in march of 2003 when the Supreme Court refused to hear their appeal of the case. Thus the only explanation for most of us not to have heard of it, is the same reason we hear about a civil war in Iraq that folks on the ground can't find. The media wants it that way. IOW, it was suppressed, by conspiracy, or just by common interest and motivations. Which doesn't matter much.

Hi SmartA, 3 days of company gone and my 'hosted' Club session is over. I'm FREE again, lol. Had a good time thought.

Yes, you're right, they upheld the Constitution. My point was mainly on the settlement of the issue. :) SFF
