It might surprise you to find out that you already know more about Probability and Statistics than you think you do.

I would.  I love numbers, and I'm fasinated by patterns within the numbers.  Like a lot of times where doing comparisons of the 3 digit from one category i.e. say the 1st + 2nd = 15 then for 3 drawings the 15 comes out in a row.  Or twice even, even, even, i.e. 424 comes out - then in the 3rd drawing a even, even, even, comes out again.  To me that rocks!  Abbagail from MD

PUMPI76, I've always loved math , but if it would help me win I'd start back as soon as I could . However, when I think how many genious mathmathicians there are out there working as professors in a school for what could be called "peanuts' compared to what they could win , it makes me wonder if there really is a way to beat the lottery . BESIDES LUCK !!!!

 RAVEN62, Your idea about a mind stretching never returning to it's original size reminds me of a fat girlfriend I once had and the swimsuits she tried on in a shop while I waited . They never returned to their original size either .
