So is it too late to talk about the new case? Has everyone already said everything that can be said? The world whooshes by so quickly these days.

Missing the blogging boat.
One thing about being a blogging lawprof is that if a new Supreme Court case comes out and you let four hours pass without blogging about it, you seem to have missed the boat entirely. I was teaching my two-hour Conlaw class this morning and saw, during my ten minute break, that the Court had decided the long-awaited Takings Clause case. Since then, I've finished my class, answered my email, relocated to home, gotten some lunch, and read a few more pages of the morning newspaper I started reading at 6 a.m.
So is it too late to talk about the new case? Has everyone already said everything that can be said? The world whooshes by so quickly these days.

Waiting for your "take" because I am speechless.
I am curious to hear what these judges can possibly be thinking of and I would love to hear arguments
I am in the commercial real estate business and I can't think of a more seismic moment/ruling in real estate law.
Your readers do not read you because you cover sujbects nobody else does. I read the roundups found via Instapundit and then came her for the definitive take. Saved the best for last. And instead I get this?
Are you turning slacker or something? Come on... get it together!
Thanks for the encouragement Harkonnedog. Having missed the first wave of reaction, I'm going to read the case a bit closely and write something later. I'll be on the late boat. I've got a couple things I've got to do first, so come back later this evening.
I'm glad you liked the photo. It's from Cheeseburger in Paradise.
This is definitely a case where it's not too late. Most of what I've read so far (which is little, as I'm not actively searching for it) has been hasty, overview statements on the case.
I haven't seen anything in depth yet, and the only intriguing post so far has been Eugene Volokh, and he's not even addressing the merits of the case, but a tangential idea.
But the Court did what everyone expected. Same as with the medical marijuana case. What the Court did was much more normal than people writing about it want you to think. But, again, I haven't read it yet, and will think it through a bit.
