Well we are warned , we have been labeled and next they will begin the
Culling.
Out of curiosity why 40% only , did the other mathematicians pay someone off

Hi Steve
The chances of drawing a glass without any marked molecules is 1/1000,
supporting ES's claim.
I don't think the maths works quite that way. Some glasses would have
exactly 1000 molecules, some would have 1000 -/+ 1, or 2 .. -/+999.
Presuming that the distribution is a normal

marked. In a cup of water taken at random (i.e. from a
