(a) Please define the difference that you would like to find there,i.e., between "odds" and "probabilities".

(b) You also neglected to take into consideration the possibility that the 263 to 1 odds were only an approximation of the actual calculated odds.

The space of calculation is a finite integer space, so the "odds" which you can't define are exact.

(c) You further neglected to mention the likelihood that Clark used a restricted set of possible names, rather than the set of all possible letter combinations.

I elaborated on what 'Griff calculated, not on what you are trying to say to give yourself credibility. You already lost that with the 1/2 malarkey. Further, if Clark did use such a restriction, like the "AL" combo, you have refuted your own claim.

A natural set would be the ones showing up in the dictionary. Surely there are a lot of different counts for 3-letter words, (likely depending on how many the counter has need of).

What is this gibberish?
