"WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ended its term Monday with no retirement announcements from any justices. A retirement could come later, however, in a letter to the president or press release.

In court, Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist struggled to talk and thanked court employees for their work over the past year before he adjourned the term.
Justices ruled in several major cases, including Ten Commandments appeals from Texas and Kentucky and a case involving illegal online swapping of songs and movies.
Rehnquist, 80, handled one of the Ten Commandment cases and had to clear his throat several times. He breathed heavily and kept the announcement brief. The chief justice has thyroid cancer and a trachea tube to help him breathe."
Ouch, looks like we as a nation are getting a new one soon.
Looks like the interpritation of the law is gonna change too. I wonder if the Schivo case would've turned out differntly with different judges.
