Why can't NASA just launch a big patch to orbit the earth and block out the hole in the ozone layer? Something Suran Wrap type stuff?
If we can build a Space Station, I don't understand why we can't be working on this.

I have noticed that in many mathematical questions, the answers winning by reader's vote, are wrong. I think in such cases the blind are being asked to lead the one-eyed.

Surely Yahoo can afford to employ a good mathematics teacher to chose the correct answers. Agree?

Suppose that i want to compute the probabilities of winning at poker.
I compute, for example, the probability of winning one pair and then for two pairs.
I can see that winning one pair is more probable. But this is not the real probability of winning since, even if is less probable, you have a better chance to win with two pairs.
Question is : how i compute the real probability?
