A baffling interpretation.

They are clearly asking questions to see if potential jurors can be fair and impartial.

EDIT: Personally I'm amazed they find so many patent holders and so few active Facebook users among the potential jurors.

I find that it helps explain the verdict, personally.

EDIT: Hey Cloven? You commented right below me, but all of your comments started going dead a couple months ago. I'm not sure why. They don't appear offensive.
