Anybody else getting asked to serve on DU juries more frequently than usual? [View all]

Maybe it's just "probabilities" or luck of the draw but Jeeeez...
I'm getting asked to serve nearly every day, where it used to be maybe twice a month.
99% of the time, I agree to be on the jury and 99% of the time, I concur with the majority of jurors too.
It's not that I'm on DU more often, either. My time spent on here has been pretty consistent over the 12 years I've been a member.
I wonder what's up?
