Thinking about judges wigs and other trappings of power.

Apparently in Poland when they have legal court everyone wears robes: different colors for attorneys and the judge etc.

Of course in the UK judges still wear wigs which US judges are free to wear too, but simply don't.

On the US Supreme court it's just black robes-- Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia, and Stephen Breyer have all tried to make skull caps happen but no one else cared.
