Try The Chain of chance. Having read that, you can better cope with info-cloaks of modern day.
I have read about a yank who won the grand prize in a lottery not only once but twice. Many people thought that the lottery was gamed somehow, but afterwards a statistician calculated that, yes, two grand prizes for same person looks gamed but the likelihood for such an event to take place in the U.S (each year) is actually quite high, 1:30.
In a sense, the modern info-cloak system makes things look more odd than they are totally ignoring the fact that populations are vast. The Chain of Chance addresses this brilliantly.
