That's what I thought. Just checking ;-)

I suppose it would be foolish to ask if this contributed
to 'justice' in the form of an accurate determination of guilt or
innocence?
Justice? What's that got to do with anything? Yes, the notion of
justice is a noble concept, but it often has little connection
with what comes out of the legal system. Remember, these are
decisions being made by a dozen folks too stupid to get out of
jury duty. :-)
The digital 'signature' in the data file output from a DC, as was
discussed a bit ago, might actually be more defensible. At least
as Albert described it, it sounded more bulletproof to me than
an 'original' piece of film.
Maybe, maybe not, but good luck explaining that concept to a jury,
some of whom don't have the attention span of a flea even during
the odd moments they're not sleeping.
