By the way I served on Blue Ribbon Jurys in NYC--that was when I was on the taxpayer's dime.
You're in Florida now. Only six jurors are seated in the majority of felony cases — even in some of the most violent and serious crimes. I just finished 6 months of Grand Jury duty. We had 21 members. All of us equally stupid.
