Importance

[edit]

In section II-B of the opinion, http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/historics/USSC_CR_0490_0228_ZO.html , Justice Brennan wrote, "In deciding as we do today, we do not traverse new ground." Does that mean the decision is or isn't important? Or is it merely ironic? I would like to know why an article is of importance, as this one seems to be. 76.21.107.221 (talk) 02:00, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
