ever heard of the "rule of nines?"

check out all the multiples of 9 in the chart... you'll see that they all have the same symbol.
the clever part of the animation is that it randomizes the symbols every time you re-load it, so you don't notice as easily.

there's a coupla card-trick type "mind reader" ones rolling 'round the 'Net, as well. same deal... mathematical constant w/ random cards offered to make it appear legit...

my boss showed me this one last week, asked me to figger it out. I ain't no math whiz, so it took a few minutes of playing around w/ it. he then told me that his wife & son, who found it first, were actually whispering their choices to one another, so the computer couldn't "hear" them...

no matter what # you start with, the answer will ALWAYS be a multiple of 9 (18, 27, 54, 81, etc.). look at the chart, and you'll see that all the multiples of nine have the same symbol next to them (there will be others w/ the same symbol, but they're just red herrings). do it a second time, and the symbol will change... but still be the same for all multiples of nine.
