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.
