MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
After nearly a decade of increasingly sharp criticisms on the subject emanating from our Court of Appeals — ranging fromCosgrove v. Bartolotta, 150 F.3d 729, 731 (7th Cir. 1998) to Wise v. Wachovia Sec., LLC, 450 F.3d 265, 267 (7th Cir. 2006), with a good many intervening opinions delivering the selfsame message — it is well past time to hold federal practitioners (who should know better) responsible for their irresponsibility. In accordance with this Court's unflagging obligation as described in such cases as Cook v. Winfrey, 141 F.3d 322, 325 (7th Cir. 1998), this action is dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction (the absence of properly alleged diversity of citizenship).
