OT- Rules of Gunfighting
Of course they were. Why bother to discuss, much less seriously talk about
ugly "broads?"

What caught my interest about the "Fair Witness" thing was that they were
needed not in spite of advanced technology, but because of it. While all
sorts of snooping and recording technology was available to the
characters of the novel, the art of special effects had also been raised
to a level where any sort of recording could be seamlessly edited. The
word of a trained impartial observer carried more weight in court.
Of course it did not hurt that RAH made them all be
the cannonical 'scantily-clad attractive ladies.'
He never seemed to have any realistic looking women
in his novels. They were all supermodels for their
day.
