Tomorrow, 20 October 2015, is World Statistics Day. How many people knew that ?
64%

Surely you mean there is a 0.002739726027397 chance that any day is World Statstics Day.

Normally I wouldn't be interested.
I think if you check World XYZ days aren't usually Christmas Day or New Years Day (or probably Thanksgiving). Further for most "professional" XYZ's they will avoid weekends. So your estimate is flawed...GrahamS - Member
