    About this ebook

    "You can literally predict my death."

    "That's right."

    "You must be a riot at parties."

    "Not really," he smiles. "As you can imagine, I have to have a lot of time on my hands to invent something this."

    "Start again. How did you come upon this ability to predict people's death?"

    "It's all math," he replied.
