	In case you did'nt know, when you play the 6 digit
	lottery game you fill out a scan-tron form with
	your selection/selections. Each form can have a
	minimum of 2, maximum of 8 selections. Each selection
	takes from 10 to 20 seconds from time of submittal
	to payment and receival of ticket. Some quick
	calculations tell us that it would take
	roughly 200 days to pick all the 6 digit combinations
	of numbers from 1 to 40! Remember you had to fill out
	the scan-tron forms beforehand. Thats roughly 1.9m
	forms! (Please correct me on this if needed).
	Also remember that by 6:55 PM on Saturdays its
	time to start over for the next lottery drawing!
