I think I need to clear any possible confusion up on my first post. I have served on juries back before my health took the turn it did, & I was fine with doing it, because I too felt it was my civic duty. When I posted the above, I didn't mean to sound like I was happy I got out of it, just that I was glad I didn't have to sit on a jury when I would have needed to be excused every hour or so. Enough said.
