not to mention that statistically, and completely reallistically, the chances of drawing 9-1-1 on 9/11 are just as good drawing a 8-1-2 or 3-4-5, the odds don't change because the date is significant. it is also equally likely that you get a 3-1-2 on 3/12 as it is to get a 9-1-1 on 9/11, the only reason the prob. seems more drastic is because of the special significance, but let me tell you something, mr. probability and lady luck don't give a shit, the only thing that makes that occasion rare was that it was in that year, but think of how many years the lotto has been around and will be around, there is plenty of chance and always will be to get a 4-2-3 on 4/23 and have a special occurance of a bunch of cows farting at the same time and blowing up.

well... maybe not the cow part... and... come to think of it... i don' t know why the fact that they are all farting at once would cause them to blow up... ah well.
