Question re "basic linguistics"

[Lewis B. Sckolnick]

  I was doing some research at a law library when the librarian told me 
that an interesting rape case was about to go on. The prosecutor was a 
woman and the defense was a man. The woman had her ideas memorized so 
she just put her notes down and did her presentation when the man saw 
that he decided to copy but he had nothing memorized and he was in no 
way prepared so it got very funny as he made his sneak attacks at his 
own notes with his often losing his place in the process both on paper 
and in argument so it might not be so much a manner of language as 
presentation.
