@neiltyson I've heard recommendations that statistics be taught as the top level of HS math instead of calculus. Agree?
@neiltyson @ScarletAtheist Things you might say if you passed Intro to Prob & Stat: The lottery is a tax on people who are bad at math.
@neiltyson Things you might say if you flunked Intro Probability & Statistics: "Wayne LaPierre has a point."

@neiltyson I have t shirt with the following lucky series: 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 the asked me if was an international phone number
@neiltyson @ehxor It depends. I know try millions times will show that each number has even chance. But what if life only gives you 2 tries.
@neiltyson WWES? (What would Euler Say?)
@neiltyson actrually statistically some numbers are chosen MUCH more often than others in the lottery.
@neiltyson The only truly lucky number is the one you got from the guy who fixed the contest. Of course, that's not really just luck either.
@neiltyson my lucky number is Bleem (thank you #GeorgeCarlin- new integer found between 6&7)
@neiltyson @XanderALX: Can I have a favorite number?
@neiltyson I don't have lucky numbers, I do PREFER prime numbers, 3, 5 and 7 are my favorites to create patterns with.

@neiltyson Stat was my favorite math class.
