It was odd. I use a women's hair tie as a gaiter (a female friend of mine introduced me to the concept... they unfurl and cover your face tightly, and they come in colorful prints). You can talk quickly through them without having the cloth suck back into your face like the regular masks do when people are speaking quickly or breathing heavily. I can understand a judge getting frustrated with people wearing regular masks, as they frequently stop and start and fiddle with the mask, or catch their breath. I think he just wanted to read my face.

Ex-military guy. I didn't challenge him.

Court reporter looked a bit freaked out. I backed up away from her out of courtesy.
