I’m a bit jaded about the Supreme Court getting involved in interstate disputes.

Such cases often lead to ridiculous decisions–much like the unanimous 1985

decision, authored by Blackmun, that held Long Island is, well, not an island,

despite the simple fact that you can’t get on it without crossing a bridge.

This article from Newsday is a good summary of the evidence against the court’s ruling.

And the decision can be found here.
