I was called for grand jury a few years ago, that's the jury who decides if there is enough evidence to go to trial. About 75 people showed up to fill 22 slots. Judge asked if anyone thought they had a good reason to not serve and 4 of them got in line 2 went home and 2 stayed for jury selection. The Clerk drew names and if you name came up you made the jury. After the 22 were chosen, Judge sent the rest home the 2 who wanted to leave were the first ones out the door. I was sitting about half way back on the aisle and the judge pointed pointed towards the back and said what's your name, I looked around and nobody was there. I pointed to myself and he said yes you. told him my name and he said You're the foreman. The clerk said we were the grand jury for 3 months and gave us a number to call to see if the jury would be needed. We had to go in twice in the 3 months. The DA explained how it worked he would bring a criminal in tell us what he did and we decided if he should go to trial. This is where you find out how stupid criminals are. It seems to be all about the intent of the perp. One guy convinced the other 21 his buddies convinced him they had permission to clean the scrap metal out of the garage. When we were done for the day the foreman goes over to the judges office to report what was done that day. I kinda enjoyed the day.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
