I don't know about your teachers, but I an only
think of one in my entire scholastic career that
I'd want to come and teach a jury anything.
You need experts in the specific tech at issue,
not generalists. Haven't you seen the comments
from folks who don't code in Java trying to
apply other OS concepts to Java and they don't
always match up?
And teaching is what the lawyers have to do. But,
you say, they don't know anything. Sometimes they
do, but that is exactly why I started Groklaw,
to explain tech to lawyers and law to geeks.
Plus, neutral... look at what happened when the judge
brought in a neutral tech adviser. Both sides thought
his report was a mess and most of it was not
allowed.

The Amish juror will probably drive the rest of the jury, the judge, and
the
lawyerhe appropriatenes
of the technology, systems, and methods.
The
Amish have an unjustified reputation of being anti-tech, because
most people
fail to understand that issue is the appropriateness of the tech,
including how
well it scales. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
