Critical Mass
Thanks to University Diaries for
yesterday's entry on Harvard:
"I wonder if there's just been a critical mass of creepy stories about

See also the previous Log24 entry, on yesterday's Pennsylvania lottery, and this description of an experiment I remember fondly from my youth:
"The floor in a large room was covered with mouse traps that were
'cocked' and on each was placed a ping pong ball. At the key moment an
additional ping pong ball was tossed out and triggered a single mouse
trap to go off. The net result after the balls started bouncing was a
classic chain reaction."
