1) I wasn't serious about "inscrutable".

2) As Carol says, we'll have to wait and see how the decisions turn out. However, as Dave and I have pointed out, there are some pretty strong indications of the Court's likely stance. In fact, I believe the 1963 decision was under the Warren Court, often accused (absurdly) of being wild liberals. This Court is likely to be more conservative, so more likely to lean in the direction Dave and I have suggested.
