On Tuesday, the Supreme Court will consider Levine's case seemingly stripped of its core human drama. Instead of gangrene and amputated arms, the justices will weigh a dry-sounding but crucial concept called pre-emption. It refers to federal rules trumping state authority. It can mean the world to big business, consumers and state officials alike.

It seems the doctor bears some blame here. He was playing god, as many alopathic docs do. This is a difficult kind of case. I couldn't measure the value of her arm because I don't know her. Someone who knows about this needs to assess the situation. Otherwise, it's just more moot yapping. (or "mute", as daftek would say, lol)
