Question of the Week suggestionsEach week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Wouldn't workAren't jury deliberations supposed to be confidential? Contempt of court and all that.
Plus, the question'd degenerate into a sequence of half-baked Daily Mail-esque rants.

UnfortunatelyI think it is illegal to disclose what happens on a jury. Would be some banging stories though...

Do it!Apart from having a cracking story I want to see an atypical judge look up from his computer screen and scream at his clerk "Higgins, get me the list of all the juries I've ever presided over and god help them if they used their internet aliases instead of real names!"
I'm with willennium on expanding it to 'Courts' tho.
