baloonworldI sift data. It's what I do, writing codes that go through the piles of info-ore looking for he rarest and most exotic nuggets. Appart from my latest one, which apprently searches for the commonest of events, discards 99% of those, includes a bunch of the other events and then presents me with a tiny pile of Telorium 108 mixed with dross, as proud as any puppy thats just widdled the carpet.
most recent sort: 400 events, 100 Te-108 (1/4)
not bothering to sort at all: 640,000 events, 70,000 Te-108 (11%)
No, scientists don;t know what we're doing. if we knew what we were doing we'd be engineers.
