A team of Princeton professors from various disciplines held a symposium at the New Jersey University to discuss a baffling mathematical conundrum involving this blog. The statistical mathematical possibility that this blog only averages 70 page views a day ranks it as inexplicable an occurrence as any these academics have seen. "It is just amazing," said Professor Davis Van Edder, chair of the Princeton physics department. "Considering that millions of people surf the internet daily, one could assume that a blank screen would get more page views through sheer, random, chance." Philosophy professor Winston Searle agreed, adding, "Websites showing nothing but a paperweight received five times the views." Roger Barnabus, of the Math department, summed up the group's consensus: “They say that if given enough time, a monkey hitting a keyboard randomly would eventually type Shakespeare. A working site receiving so few page views is as unlikely as a goldfish, in one sitting, typing every novel Philip Roth ever wrote."
