<Snipped quote by Techspert>
You have it backwards. I've raised them to fifty-fifty. That's why of the terrible options available to me, this was the best one. To simply make the approach and leave it out of my hands. Even though we could claim it's an even shot now, really, this has a less than one percent chance for me, which is still the highest among the few options I had. You being incredibly intelligent and analytical is a bonus.
I see.
Logic is just what I do. But you've sure given yourself good odds; is there any information you can give that you haven't?
