Where the numbers come from

Every number here is built from checksOne question, asked once, to one assistant, with the whole answer stored. Every number in this product is built from these, and you can open any of them.. One check is one question, asked once, to one assistant, with the whole answer stored exactly as it came back.

We ask the same question many times, on different days, because assistants do not give the same answer twice. A single answer tells you almost nothing; forty of them tell you what usually happens.

Click any number and you will get the list of answers behind it, with the date and the assistant that gave each one. If a number cannot be traced back to answers you can read, it should not be on the screen.
