From: Paul Andrew Mitchell [address in tool bar]
Subject: [LEADERS] SLS: doctrine of hypothetical jurisdiction 

Use heavy British accent in what follows:

See "Bleak House," by Charles Dickens, to wit:

"Mountains of costly nonsense."

"The wigs are coming!  THE WIGS ARE COMING --

 -- clouds of dense fog, creeping in off the Thames,
 down dank alley ways, into damp buildings,
 through corridors of just us, and settling
 right down upon the bench."

"Accordingly, this honorable Court shall 
 invoke its inherent powers under the 
 doctrine, ahem, dogma of hypothetical
 jurisdiction, henceforth, and hereinafter,
 forever.  Amen."

"Please approach this bench, Mr. Jabberwocky!"

"That ... is ... an ... ORDER!!"

"Oh, kind Sir, your wig is twisted around your neck."

/s/ Paul Mitchell
