Following up on an interesting conversation in fairoriana's journal, I'm curious about what people know and/or remember about U.S. Supreme Court decisions.

Before clicking through, please see how many U.S. Supreme Court decisions you can name off the top of your head.

I could think of six right away, and I'm Swedish (with a completely different legal system not based on case law).

Out of curiosity, how did you come to be familiar with them?

I mean, I can name a bunch of South African Constitutional Court (and even some (lower) High Court decisions and a few key criminal cases), but I've lived and worked there off and on for over a decade.

I read American liberal blogs. Some cases are part of the argumentation very often.
