  Supreme Justice was a lot of fun to write because it gave me an excuse to tour
  the United States Supreme Court as part of my research. I argued a case there
  in 1978, but I was in my early thirties and only in my fifth year of practice
  and way too nervous to ask for a tour. My thanks to the Honorable Diarmuid
