Do you know if, by chance, this was the first public notification of Thorp's findings?

 

[zengrifter]

I beleive it was, though he may have published a limited math-journal paper on the 5s count, prior. zg

This was an interesting find from last year. zg

Yes I remember seeing this a while back.

The part that struck me was a story about a 6'4" center on a college basketball team! When's the last time you saw that?

Priceless!
