O.J. TRIAL . . . TRIVIAL PURSUITS

Sidebar transcripts from yesterday's trial show a room that at times seemed to resemble an elementary schoolclassroom more than a courtroom. Defense attorney Johnnie Cochran complained that one juror wasn't paying attention (Ito agreed, although he took no action), while defense attorney Peter Neufeld complained that prosecutor Marcia Clark was giggling during testimony. Clark denied it, saying "this did not happen. ...Mr. Neufeld is on some other planet."
