I've been called to jury duty 3 times in the last 20 years or so... and been seated on a jury every time.

I have the utmost respect for the legal system, especially having sat as a juror. It's impressive how seriously the average person takes the responsibility, at least in my experience.

That said, my attitudes have changed a bit as I've gotten older and now that I'm wearing the kilt more, I think I would go kilted. If for no other reason than to be able to say "why" if a judge felt it was inappropriate. If women can wear trousers, why can't I wear a kilt? Would the judge throw out a Muslim woman wearing a scarf? How about an Indian in a Sari? What about a Jew with a Yarmulka? Why should I be singled out? It's not like I'm showing up in a flower print dress and branding myself as some kind of freak. If the judge reacts negatively, then I'd think I'd have a case for discrimination. If the attorneys think it brands me as too nonconformist or independent for them to want me on their jury, they're probably right. ;-)
