George has been unusually difficult lately.

Probability of a trillion coins tossed all landing on edge simultaneously (Those trillion being the only coins tossed) is effectively zero.

There is a difference between effectively zero and zero, and I think the OP (or one of his cats) clearly wants a specific answer not a “rounded down” one.

I once dropped a thiamine tablet and that landed on its edge. I remember thinking at the time, I could spend the rest of my life trying to replicate that but never actually doing it.

Regards,

Jay.

Proof right there!

The smaller typeface and fragmentary writing—your cat made you type all that. She's countering "misinformation".

Now I know why all archvillians, from Blofeld to Dr Claw have cats.

I believe Lily has George tied up in a twine ball in the basement and is typing that.

The crazy thing about this is you are as likely to hit this on the first try as the trillionth try.
