[Eidetic]

just an aside: anyone can start a wikipedia page

ETA: anyone can get in there and edit/add on their own opinion.

I can tell that many of us are sitting our our hands during this cross, and on behalf of the mods, I say :tyou: and keep it up! (Am typing this with one hand because I don't trust myself to unleash both.)

 

[whiteangora]

Now I have to sit on my hands.........OMG, Please Baez don't go there!

 

[uklaw]

JA sounds pizzed, and rightfully so.

No.

The FB issue was Bizarre (almost humorous).

However, his comment re: Dr. Vaas' institute holding him out as a biochemist when he was not, seemed relevant to me. Goes to credibility if he was complicit in it.

 

[Harmony 2]

Did they say if this was found on the inside of the tire cover, or the outside?

scrapings of the carpet side of the tire cover.. IIRC

 

[Donjeta]

JB hasn't got ANYTHING against his testimony, he has to harp about Facebook and Wikipedia writings that Vass didn't submit.

 

[JSR]

just an aside: anyone can start a wikipedia page

Correct. And anyone can edit it.

 

[grandmaj]

This will backfire. Jurors do not like having a witness attacked especially when there is no proof that what the Attorney is saying is true.

 

[wvjules]

Dr. Vass' wikipage was last updated by someon today. I wonder if JB put the
"is a research chemist scientist, a biochemist and " on his page? lol

Anyone can also change or add information as far as I know...

Yeah, but the used to patrol it pretty well.

 

[Whimsigal]

Oh mercy. Baez is using a giant flippad. Asking questions about Vass' database and recording his answers there.

 

[okiedokietoo]

[sleutherontheside]

Watch out.....big giant notepad on the ready.

 

[PassTheMotrin]

I believe Baez is asking Dr. Vass the same questions he asked of him during the Frye hearings.

 

[Celt1997]

just an aside: anyone can start a wikipedia page

Yeah, no one should ever take anything from Wikipedia as fact. FWIW Dr. Vass's wikipedia entry does say "Biochemist." Maybe someone from the DT put it there. :floorlaugh:

 

[Mountain_Kat]

Pssst, JB...never ask a question in court that you don't know the answer to.


:floorlaugh:
