Re: VMs: RE: Nasa Astronomy Picture of The Day
for knox:
rather than throwing the dice, try turning (mirroring) your ideas when
you encounter the next 'gallows' character! (SEE they FIT too)
-=se=-
steve (it's not random for a reason) ekwall :-)
p.s. the gallow characters are THE key!!! (your die would need 8 sides
btw) think octo?

Both ends of that statement cover a lot of territory. The first part
would be difficult to prove. I am not sure what is specifically meant by
"mathematical distributions" but there is the possibility of producing
many series with dice and cards. I have been piddling with dice, myself.
Being "quite common" is not necessary but evidence would be interesting.
If successful with dice (by some yet undetermined measures), I will not
have proven the VMS was constructed by such a method. Far from it. Also,
there are other possibilities than ordinary script and gambling scores.
It is a type of statement with which I would neither agree nor disagree.
