Admittedly, this is off-topic.  If the editors choose to delete this post,

variation of roulette because I despise gambling.

I am especially interesting in the opinions of mathematical experts such as
Muller and Thompson (even though they are sometimes not interested in my
opinion on mathematical matters).
