    - I am curious - how does that even happen? a blockage like that - at 31 -- nm - Epiphany Oct 22, 19:49 1
      - It is an acronym I forget at the moment. Basically, it isn't a calcified blockage like in older folks. - TFox Oct 22, 19:55

- last night I made toasty chick peas in the toaster oven by tossing the peas with a mess of spices and baking till crunchy. mmm, protein. -- nm - dracula loves mandy lane Oct 22, 19:30 6
  - You used an appliance with " oven" in the title - or hell you used an appliance. - Epiphany Oct 22, 19:50 1

        My God, this deserves a Nobel Prize. -- nm - Mop Oct 22, 20:21
        
        the difference is how you get down to two cases... - dogbert183 Oct 22, 19:10 5
        
        but when he went from three to two cases, switching would still have improved his odds. - mafic Oct 22, 19:19 3
        
        though I suppose since he's the one choosing which case to open, it might not be the same as monty hall. regardless, the IM stands. -- nm - mafic Oct 22, 19:22 2
        
        re IM: the $1 case is irrelevent, it's just the other case at that point. (if it was the $5 or the $500,000 case the question would still be the same - dogbert183 Oct 22, 19:24 1
        
        yeah, but he's still no more likely to have picked anything but the $5 or $500,000 case 25 times. - mafic Oct 22, 19:33
        
        Yeah, I see the difference now. - Reagen Oct 22, 19:14
