Science Supreme

With the announcement of an opening on the US Supreme Court every person with a opinion will weigh in with advice for the President on a selection.  

With the ever increasing technical nature of issues of intellectual property and environmental law that come before the court there is a case to be made for someone with a science or engineering background to sit on the high court.  Not having a law background I don't have specific recommendations, but I raise the issue in the hope that it will gain traction among the science community.
