A propos of earlier discussion of reaction times and false starts in Olympic
sprint events, I chanced to pass a television this evening and saw tall slim
women throwing hoops into the air and rolling around on a mat. The judges'
opinion of their antics was given to 5 significant figures, and the
difference between the best performances seemed to lie in the 4th figure.
