No, no, no, no, no, no. That could not be further from the truth, a
measure of Platt's ignorance, whatever point Arlo was going on to make
about DQ and God .... which I suspect I would agree with.
Chance is a measure of knowledge, it is a clear understanding of
exactly what can (and can't) be known. The very opposite of ignorance.
