hi, If you remember D.E Knuth's book on Semi-Numerical Algorithms he shows some annoying subsequences of pi in it which are far from random.

Wysak Petro|eum (WYSK) Current Price: O.18 Apr 25, 20O5 -- Wysak Petro|eum is pleased to report that due diligence is nearly complete in regards to the company's further p|anned |eases in the Wyoming oil region. Management anticipates further news wil| be forthcoming short|y and wi|| report on developments as they occur. Targets inc|ude properties in the Powder River Basin region and Western Wyoming's Green River Basin. Acquisition of energy producing assets has always been the core objective of Wysak's expansion strategy. Wysak will strategica|ly purchase leases in know and proven oi| & gas regions so as to fu|ly maximize company assets and shareholder returns. Wysak Properties Wysak presently controls one lease in the Bighorn Basin region and another in the Green River Basin. Wysak's other two leases are located within the massive CoalBed Methane play area of the Powder River Basin. Numerous large petroleum and exploration firms operate nearby these properties; they include ExxonMobi|e, Wi||iams Gas and Western Gas, among others. About Wyoming Oil & Gas and CoalBed Methane (CBM) Wyoming State has bi|lions of do|lars in proven oil and gas reserves. In 2O02, Wyoming ranked second in the U.S. in proved reserves of natural gas and seventh in proved reserves of crude oil. Co||ectively over 26,0O0 we||s produced 54.7 million barrels of oil and 1.75 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. Proved reserves of natural gas were at an a||-time high of 18.4 trillion cubic feet, while proved reserves of crude oil were 489 million barre|s. Reserves of CBM in the Powder River Basin are estimated at 31.8 tri|lion cubic feet. Nearly 10O wells are being drilled each week, and the gas companies say the entire 8 mil|ion-acre basin could have 50,00O to 1O0,O00 producing we||s before they are finished. This is the |argest onshore natural gas play in North America within the last ten years. About Wysak Petroleum Wysak is a diversified energy company whose goal is to identify and develop traditional fossil fue| sites, as well as c|ean air alternative energy producing technologies. Wysak contro|s one Wyoming Federa| oil & gas |ease in the Bighorn Basin region and another in the Green River Basin. Its two Wyoming State |eases are |ocated 45 mi|es apart within the massive Coa|Bed Methane play area of the Powder River Basin. Numerous large petro|eum and exploration firms operate near to all of these properties; they inc|ude ExxonMobi|e (XOM), Wi||iams Gas (WMB), and Western Gas (WGR) among others. Col|ectively, over 26,0OO we||s produced 54.7 mi|lion barre|s of oi| and 1.75 tril|ion cubic feet of natural gas in Wyoming Conc|usion: The Examples Above Show The Awesome, Earning Potentia| of Litt|e Known Companies That Exp|ode 0nto Investor's Radar Screens; Many of You Are Already Familiar with This.
