Re: IBM 1956 consent decree

Another fine example of the power of lifetime judicial appointments. The judge in the 1956 case (David Edelstein) spent the rest of his career overseeing this decree. IBM tried unsuccessfully to have it terminated for many years, but even in his 80s Edelstein remained a bitter antagonist and refused to consider it. Reminds me of Neils Bohr's deliciously cynical observation that "science advances one funeral at a time".
