      I like how you’ve chosen to denigrate both the losers who are purchasing it, and the education system at the same time. I can’t speak for anyone else but I certainly got enough statistics in high school to know full well… your statement implies you did too so where is this Rarity you speak of if both of us have gotten it?

          Yes I get that you drew a silky thin line between choice and availability, my point is the premise of your argument is invalid. Everybody knows you’ve got very little chance of winning the lottery with or without a high school statistics class…
