Darren Brown correctly 'predicts lottery numbers'

um dooks, i don't mean to insult you or anything, but maths can do some pretty fucked up things. like, i can't remember exactly the context (anyone with a maths degree here?) but, things such as bank account deposits (for businesses), the prices of things in shops, things like that, do not have an average of leading numbers, they follow a set pattern. totally unrelated things and things that you would expect to be random are not.

kind of ruins my point that i can't remember what this is called. to google!

Oh Jesus Christ, this is horrible.

To think we have come so far and still amongst us are magical thinkers :(

There is no data passed from one random selection of [anything] to the next.

You are not insulting dooks, really.
