A supreme court justice was asked the same question. I don't agree with it completely but think it's an interesting opinion. >Rosen: Why is it good for men—as you said recently, there should be nine women on the Supreme Court …

I did a code review for my manager where I reminded him to punctuate and capitalize every code comment. I wonder what review score I'm going to get this quarter.
