    Someone just told me "Its a 1 in a billion chance, it will never happen" ... I corrected him saying that "we see 10.000 vehicles per year, I am pretty sure we have a 0.001% chance of seeing one per year, no ? I was ignored. Ahwell, I guess it would not matter that much.

        @redenchilada We use dots where the rest of the world seems to use comma's

          @critialcloudkicker So does the 0.001% mean 0,001% or simply 1%? Or does it mean one thousandth of a percent? I'm confused now

            @redenchilada I believe that 10 thousand upon a billion is a certain percentage chance
