Think of it like this because this is how I understood it. If you had 100 doors to choose... and only one door had a car. You have a 1% chance of winning. If he eliminates 98 doors that don't have the car and leaves you with the one you chose, and one that could be the car... what would you choose then?
I dunno about you guys, but I know I have no chance of getting the right door out of 100
Pretty cool class though. If there are more than 25 people in one place, there is a 90% chance that someone will have the same birthday.

With three doors, its only 67% which is still pretty close to 50%

I remember seeing pictures of someone installing the edfc and they had to drill a hole to run the wire for it. I'll try to find it.
