One way to get out of jury duty, if you are so inclined. I have been through the jury selection process a few times. My lawyer friends have told me that typically, if the evidence is against the defendant, that the defense lawyers don't want engineers, scientists, etc. People who are analytical in their reasoning and less swayed by emotion. Prosecutors fight for the opposite. And if the evidence is sketchy, then it is the other way around. Both have said they prefer people who are not overly bright. So I was not quite sure how to take it when I was selected for a Jury a few years back.

I don't think lawyer would like your kind... too analytical and brainy.
