    Inaccurate, and weird.

    0.97 Is Jerry Garcia dead?
    0.90 Did Jerry Garcia die in 1995?
    0.85 Was Jerry Garcia a member of "the Grateful Dead" before he died?
    0.76 Did Jerry Garcia play guitar for the Grateful Dead?
    0.32 Did Jerry Garcia have 9.5 fingers?

    I don't understand how it's 32% probable that Jerry Garcia had 9.5 fingers. Does that mean that, of all the Jerry Garcias in the world, 32% of them have lost half a finger? Or that Jerry Garcia of the Grateful dead had 9.5 fingers for 32% of his life?
