A Million Random Digits with some odd reviews

Linked to amazon's review of the book A Million Random Digits with 100,000 Normal Deviates from the website Everything Isn't.

Check out the reviews. All 27 of them.

Wow! The 1,000,000 random digits produced by the Rand Corporation are some of the best random digits out there! I was amazed at some of their selections. For example: would YOU have conceived of the sequence 35462? Or 239877687468? Or 776834689765872643756324876 (one of my personal favorites). This is fine, fine work. Kudos to the folks at Rand on this most fascinating tract that truly keeps one on the edge of his seat.
