Oh this is weird again. There's nothing in LR's post above that I can see - no Youtchewb linky. But if I "quote" his message, I can see the wording of the link. But when I preview it, there's no link

Have I found the missing link? Or is it just missing?

I edited it. I think I missed a letter in the Youtube identifying string.

One of the greatest courtroom scenes ever. I've seen it used in seminars as a model for expert witness qualification and testimony. I think it's every lawyer's favorite lawyer movie.
GAH!

I believe the starting point of that skit, "I ain't a bank robber, I'm a drug dealer" was based on something that actually happened in a real courtroom...I seem to recall seeing a video clip of it years ago...
