(BTW, before you slam public defenders (as in "30
years and he's still a
public defender??"), my father-in-law became a lawyer for the first time
at age 59 -- he wanted to change careers before he retired (used to make
six figured in office-building real estate management).)

There is nothing wrong with being a public defender your whole life, its an
honorable profession. I have to say the people I find to be clueless in
court (the times I got stuck doing jury duty) were the prosecutors. Yea I
know this is offtopic but I must stress that if you have ever gone to court
you will notice that the jury tends to be anything but your peers and most
prosecutors seem to be people who cannot pass the test to be a mailman.
