I can't use 'Plain Jane' or 'Snowballs' chance in hell'. Plain Jane is from 1910, and Snowball's is from 1931. Real bummer too, since those are the sorts of expressions you can just imagine Grisham using.

I, too, love your research skills and dedication to historical accuracy. Not only does the story read much better but I get to learn something new! Let me know if you need any help. :)
