No offense to Scalia's legal mind but I had to laugh at the idea of Antonin Scalia making any concept "sexy". That's not an adjective that I would ever believe applied to him or his role on the Supreme Court. And that has to do with his personality, not his gender. Liz Read!

I guess we have to balance Wikipedia being first with the news against the danger of a short-term hoax. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:43, 20 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
