No it is Mensan for - "two celled" - as I may have two cells in my brain according to 3T who claims membership of Mensa. Twice as many as last week's estimate. No, this term does not raise the level of debate. 3T gives law advice on the law thread in these terms - which makes the law thread a more varied read than you might otherwise expect.
I still think there is basic confusion over
granting a hearing for an appeal
and
allowing an appeal and scrapping a conviction or varying the sentence
