Normally I'll get 2-3 requests to serve in a month. I always figured that is because, even though I visit this site pretty much daily, I don't linger. I'm in and out 2-3 times a day.

For the past several weeks the requests have increased to as many as a dozen in a week, and as you say, the vast bulk of them are pure unadulterated horse manure. Unbelievably childish, moronic alerts.

I think, lately I've served on juries with some of the same people. Over the last week, in the comments of the "verdicts" I've seen it said, a few times, that those making these ridiculous alerts should be given time outs. I whole heartily agree, sadly. It's bad. Something needs done soon.
