I have a couple notables from the 1800s Dred Scott v. Sandford (slavery - master takes slave into free state, slave runs away, is recaptured, slave sues, but is ruled not a citizen - BOO); Plessy v. Ferguson (segregation on trains - can't really remember the details, but established the whole "separate but equal" nonsense), and then of course Brown v. Board of Ed. (if you don't know, then I'm not tellin' :-P) and ok, this isn't a fav, but really, who hasn't heard of Bush v. Gore :-P I am nerd.
And just as a side note, Amanda Tapping is sporting a (bad) fake British accent along with that long black hair (read: wig) for that new show Sanctuary on SciFi. WTF?
