+    ## On October 28 2024, SCOTUS touched hundreds of old opinions, triggering thousdands of "new" citation
+    ## ingests.  I no longer have time to maintain this strictly. It's hihgly unlikely they were changing
+    ## citation data. As such, the best bet for now is to simply hide these citations, because I can't verify
+    ## them all.  If this happens again, we should add a new "ignore" field to opinions, and batch ignore
+    ## citations for flagged opinions. Yes, this is brute force and inelligant, but I simply don't have the time.
