MIT vs. Las Vegas

spellcheckur writes "Techno-mag-turned-fashion-rag Wired Magazine has an article about MIT kids counting cards in Las Vegas. I wish I could have made seven figures while I was still in college. Maybe I should get a how-to book." Also, any chance is a good chance to mention The Eudaemonic Pie.

    To quote an old freind of mine : "Whats the point in counting cards, you know there are always going to be 52."

    "The guard doesn't seem to be bothered by the bulges under my clothes. He waves me through the metal detector, and I stumble toward my gate."

    Thank god he didn't try to hide the money in his shoes!

    What are you talking about? I make seven figures right now.

    Of course, two of those figures are to the right of the decimal point...sigh.

    Agreed.

    This should be considered a tax. Those bad at math pay and those too smart to breed will now have the chance to reproduce.

    Shouldn't the EPA be involved? Something about the endanger math student.
