Is it acceptable to remove nearly all young people from juries? Is it acceptable to remove nearly all people who know anything about computers from juries?

(What I mean is, it's the plaintiff's job to explain things clearly and precisely -- handwaving usually means you have no case -- but when they've repeatedly and intentionally failed to do so, judges have let them get away with it.)<BR/><BR/>XYZZYAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15479871.post-47626080829893348712008-11-20T15:38:00.000-05:002008-11-20T15:38:00.000-05:00A jury of your peers does not mean "other p2p-ers"...A jury of your peers does not mean "other p2p-ers" here.
