     "Words of an opinion entirely unnecessary for the decision
of the case. A remark made or opinion expressed by a judge in
his decision upon a cause, "by the way," that is, incidently
or collaterally, and not directly upon the question before him,
or upon a point not necessarily involved in the determination
of the cause, or introduced by way of illustration or analogy
or arguement. Such are not binding as precedent."

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance�not soapboxing!  These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically  by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.

Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
