...and that it will be required that I testify. Of course, I will do so. You will have to bring your lap-top. Remember, the crime was committed in cyber space and consists solely of electronic posts of which there are not even hard copies. All of the evidence exists only in the SI archives, somewhere in their computers. The judge and jury would actually need your computer more than they would need you. About all you could do is show them how to work it. I would make a poor witness (that is, my computer would) as the court docket would put the trial long into the future, and I would not even be able to show them how to retrieve my posts from many months or even years ago. I know that some here are readily able to do that, but I never learned how. I'll still keep my calendar open for the lunch-hour, though.
