A judge has stunned a court by admitting he does not know what a website is.
Judge Peter Openshaw, 59, brought an Internet terror trial to a halt when he admitted he struggled to cope with basic terms like "website".
He told stunned prosecutors at Woolwich Crown Court in south east London: "The trouble is I don't understand the language. I don't really understand what a website is."
The Judge is hearing a trial of three men charged under anti-terrorism laws.
Prosecutor Mark Ellison was forced to set aside his questioning to explain the terms "website" and "forum".
The Judge admitted: "I haven't quite grasped the concepts."

wow, you literally have to be living under a rock to not know what a website is.
even if you don't own a computer, the term is used all over the place - on tv, newspapers, bus ads, flyers, business cards, t-shirts, etc. etc. |
