Do you suppose that Club Paradise in El Cajon is near the Casino at one end Dehesa Rd?

[Bluebird Singing]

I think you are right. I use to live in Alpine, husband worked in El Cajon. We would take the back roads when traveling home from El Cajon instead of Interstate 8. Dehesa Rd. was right there. The article above says Club Paradise is in the back hills of El Cajon

John,
In regards to Dusek, Hall testimony. First it was very painful to read. Second it is probably the best evidence I have seen of how our court system is not set up to deal with technical data. Hall was required many times to answer yes or no (the judge said answer yes or no, not even option for don't know, or does not apply) to questions on hypothetical examples with incorrect data as part of the question.

Dusek spent 1/2 his time arguing that Hall criticized Goff on average temperatures and that Hall was in error because Goff wrote median and Hall said average (which in this case were the same). Hall's main criticism of Goff was that he used degree hours versus degree days for thermal calculations when Goff had no hourly temperatures to deal with (he made them up by averaging daily temperatures.

When Hall finally discusses one subset of Anderson's data that would lead to early Feb., it was with only one type of fly. The other fly type was in the 12th range and the other data sets for both flies came out 12th or later.
I also found it troubling that Dusek was able to make snide remarks like "you do know who to calculate that don't you?" and "your flies" to Hall and not get any warning from the judge.

Then there was this in the transcript:
DUSEK
Q ARE YOU SAYING CLOSE ENOUGH FOR A MURDER CASE?

A. NO. WHAT I'M SAYING IS THAT --

MR. FELDMAN: THAT'S ARGUMENTATIVE, OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.

THE COURT: THE DOCTOR'S ALREADY ANSWERED IT. OVERRULED.

So does that go down as a NO? That certainly was not the intent of the answer, but there was no follow up question.

Frustrating
