1) unmapped alt- sequences are passed as characters--Alt-o (to open
[ok, I was wrong!]) put an o in my title.
2) inability to read old files. I don't know if this was a spring bug
or a current bug. I've attached the offending document and the simple
postscript insert. This worked in the spring, and now fails to
print--but it renders internally. The file came from the fall, but I
believe it printed properly in the spring.

I go out hunting for deer.
Unfortunately, there is an extremist pro-mammal group in the woods hunting
hunters.
One of them has a bow an arrow, and has a
\begin_inset Formula \( 15\% \)
\end_inset
chance of hitting me.
The other has a shotgun, and has a
\begin_inset Formula \( 10\% \)
\end_inset
chance of hitting me.
Assuming that these are independent events, what is the chance that I am
injured (or worse)? Answer with set theoretic notation, and use this to
provide a numerical answer.

Now suppose that the maniac with the bow always shoots second, and has a

\end_inset
chance of hitting me if I've been hit with the shotgun.
What is the chance that they both hit me? Answer with set theoretic notation,
and use this to provide a numerical answer.

The bad news is that they got all four of your tires in the process.

What is the chance that these are the four he brings out?
