What's a website, asks judge at internet trial

A judge in an "internet terrorism" trial admitted yesterday that he had no idea what a website was.
Mr Justice Openshaw told stunned prosecutors at Woolwich Crown Court in south London: "The trouble is I don't understand the language. I don't really understand what a website is."

So judge will be impartial since he doesn't know what website is. He has no prior bias about website.
But I don't know about the terrorist defendant though.
This is fresh.

It's not a new phenomenon that Judges are often out of touch with the real world. A judge once asked "Who are the Beatles?" and one in the 1950's asked "What are boogie woogie?".
