* still ot * I think you're right..that the ability to predict the NEXT toss is unaffected by previous tosses, but over infinite time the coin SHOULD show both sides in equal amounts. Is this more correct? Now all anyone has to do is wait for infinity/2 (for 50/50 events) to KNOW that their "luck" will change.

OT Well, I did it.......I bought 5 tickets to tonight's Powerball today! I figure my chances are now 5 better than they were yesterday :) I never play the lottery...........and, it wasn't anything like the news said it would be...........there was absolutely nobody in the store I went to except the cashier.......no one in line ahead of me........not one soul saying what they would do if they won. What are the odds of this happening the day of a big drawing? I'm feeling lucky! <gg> E!
