In Response To: Diaconis on Randomness (Bob Koca)

There are few players who have near the mathematical understanding that you do, Bob. I'm certainly not one of them. But just because I wrote in very general terms - a laymans terms, perhaps - doesn't alter the fact that there is evidence that the seventh shuffle may be the most efficient, but it still leaves the deck of cards well short of true randomness, unlike your claim.

Is this forum purely for those in Ivory Towers? If it is, I apologise for sticking my head above the parapet.
