Again, thanks for this site. I'm very happy to be here.

Lemit, you can go here and examine it. http://hypography.com/forums/physics...obability.html

My basic premise was that: since the number of consecutive sequences (1,2,3,4,5,6; 2,3,4,5,6,7; ,3,4,5,6,7,8, etc) is much smaller than the humber of possible non-consecutive sequences, then the probability is less.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
