Save your $2Warning: If you want to beleive in psychic energies don't read this or your faith will be eroded by math and programming.
For those of you who want to know how the psychic shapes site in newsletter 51 works.
You choose any 2 digit number ( 10 - 99 ) and then subtract the digits. By the nature of 2 digit numbers this will give a maximum of 9 results ( 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81 ). Because these 9 numbers are spaced out far enough only one can be on the screen at once so using the information on how far down the bar on the right is the script just picks the only valid symbol left which happens to be the one your pointing to.
