Default For spotters of unusual odometer readings...

It would actualy be really odd if the numbers on your odometer didn't
match some significant date or combination of numbers sometimes.

One day the lottery numbers will be 1,2,3,4,5,6. in that order - nothing
statistically odd about that, but the papers would be full of it for
weeks.

Many people have little knowledge of the laws of probability.


What's the probability that a randomly selected person would have little
knowledge of the laws of probability?
