This morning in the Federal Court House in Boston...

Federal Judge: "Jury member number 8 (JMN8), what is you profession?"

JMN8: "I am a professor."

Federal Judge: "What field?"

JMN8: "My PhD is in sociology and I am a professor of sociology and environmental studies."

Federal Judge (after briefly speaking with attorneys on both sides): "Jury member number 8, you are excused."
