Paul,

I am aware of 2 probability studies, one in fluid dynamics and the other in genetics. The one in genetics was really interesting. My friend, who is on the advisory board of one of the genomics firm, was trying to determine the probability in mapping the human genome. His first results came in extremely high, over 90% and he knew there was no chance that he could be correct. He noticed that he used the normal set which limits the variables, so he then opened it up to all the variables(open set not closed set).

He ran the probability program over and over and came with similar results around 63%. Similar results from the fluid dynamics study. Well 63% is so close to the FIBONACCI number of 61.8%, and we believe there is a relation. Thats how I got the 62%, just lazy to write 61.8%. ggggg
