>PERJURED AGAIN - Y2K REARS ITS UGLY HEAD IN COURT
>
>J.B. McCraw was called for jury duty in Arlington County, Va., the same
>courtroom where sportscaster Marv Albert was tried on assault and sodomy
>charges.
>
>"When the judge asked if anyone wanted to be excused, a handful of people
gave
>good reasons before the crowd of about 260 people," Mr. McCraw reveals.
>
>Then, a gray-haired man in a gray flannel suit seated in the jury box next to
>the judge stood, harumphed and said: "Your honor. I am on the President's Y2K
>Commission and this is a very busy time for us, dealing with the Y2K
problem."
>
>The deceptively mild-mannered judge leaned over, looked the gentleman
square in
>the eye and said: "Sir, the president told us there is no Y2K problem. You
are
>on panel A."
>
>The guffaws from 250 throats was glorious.
