I DIDN'T GET CALLED FOR YEARS BECAUSE OF SOME CIVIL SUITS I WAS ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN AND THAT WAS O.K. WITH ME. NOW ITS EVEY THREE YEARS LIKE CLOCKWORK. ITS ALWAYS PISSED ME OFF ABOUT THE (OTHERS) WHO NEVER GET THE CALL. IN MY FIELD I KNOW I'LL NEVER SIT ON A JURY. I THINK WHEN A JURY DOES WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO THEY ARE A WONDERFUL THING, BUT WHEN THEY HEAD SOUTH HALF WAY THROUGH A TRIAL AND NULLIFY EVIDENCE AND FIND SOMEONE NOT GUILTY WHEN THEY ARE UNEQUIVICALLY GUILTY THEN I THINK ITS THE WORST POSSIBLE ACTION THAT COULD HAPPEN (see O. J. TRIAL). I HAVE SEEN THE MOST GUILTY GET OFF AND THE LEAST GUILTY BE SENT AWAY. ON THE WHOLE I DON'T BELIEVE JURIES WORK. IT IS AN EXERCISE IN FUTILITY.
