Sunspots. Just in case you are missing it Neo, the current sunspot peak is going to be right on the money of my October 2008 prediction. Even I am impressed by me. <It is obviously time to short sun-spot activity, hand over fist. The next peak will be 72 [not the highest level reached but the rounded peak]. During the Baby Boom era, it was running at 160. So we should more than double our money. > Prepare for the big freeze in 2020 [predicted long ago with 2020 foresight]. Mqurice PS: You vanished so I had to ask SI where you are lurking, finding you here.

To be fair, the rules for these items inside a mental asylum should be different than on the outside as well. Courtrooms are specifically for processing possible criminals and have a higher density of them than the rest of the world... there are reasons why jurists would be at higher risk than a citizen on the street minding their own business. Consider the freedom to possess matches and lighters. These may be reasonably restricted when the presence of such devices could be inflammatory - like in a fireworks or ordnance factory. I don't see any intrinsic irrationality here. They also prohibit public possession of hacksaws in jails for similar reasons.
