He suggested that it’s the job of Congress to forge a solution. He questioned whether the courts should be “taxidermist for every legislative big-game accomplishment that Congress achieves.” The judge who seemed to largely agree with him was appointed by George W. Bush. A third judge, appointed by Jimmy Carter, stayed silent during the 90-minute hearing, per Amy Goldstein, who was in the courtroom for us.

An ultrasonic thickness gage is an instrument that generates sound pulses in a test piece using an ultrasonic transducer and then precisely measures the time interval until the echoes are received. Having been programmed with the speed of sound in the test material, the gage uses that sound velocity information and the measured time interval to calculate thickness through the simple relationship of distance equals velocity multiplied by time.
