Am.) Message-ID: <165@heurikon.UUCP> Date: Sat, 7-Jan-84 15:59:08 EST Article-I.D.: heurikon.165 Posted: Sat Jan 7 15:59:08 1984 Date-Received: Sun, 8-Jan-84 04:45:07 EST Organization: Heurikon Corp., Madison WI Lines: 13 In mid 1983 Scientific American magazine announced a "Luring Lottery" wherin anybody could enter any number of times and would receive $1,000,000/N where N = the total number of entries received. I don't subscribe to Sc. Am. - Does anybody out there know how the lottery came out? And in what issue the results were discussed? Mail replies please, unless you want to open a discussion on the net.
