Besides, jury duty is a pain, but also a civic duty. It doesn't require nearly the sacrifice or bravery of serving in the armed services or working in public safety; but it plays a small part in protecting our liberties. Seen in that light, it's not so bad.

As usual, I so agree with you.
I was called here in Ohio about six months ago and it was a murder trial. Fortunately the defendant chose to not have a trial by jury and opted for a trial by judge. The judge told all of us that we must have looked like a "hanging jury" to his lawyers.
Don't they take "no shows" seriously all over this country???
