...needle's height is a minute electric current that should not flow at all, according to classical physics. Reason: there is nothing to conduct electrons, the carriers of electric current, across the insulating vacuum that separates needle from surface. But modern quantum theory says that a few electrons will jump anyway. Indeed they do, and since the number that jump depends on the size of the gap, the microscope's circuitry can continuously readjust the needle's height by monitoring the amount of current flowing between its tip and the object. The device "is completely new," said the Swedish Academy...

By refusing to abandon more than 20 years of consistent judicial reasoning and a rights-based approach to the Constitution in order to jump on the Reagan bandwagon, Brennan utterly fails to meet the Reynold's test of judicial competence.
