Do you play powerball (lottery)?

Is the system all interrelated so every time a ticket is sold all the other machines get a new set of numbers? Hmmmm.

No. You could have 50 people with the exact same numbers, the jackpot would then be split 50 ways.

Yeah, I know. I didn't phrase that well. I guess I was wondering if Joe Blow buys a ticket at ⁷⁄₁₁ just before I buy a ticket at Safeway will my numbers be different than it would have been before Joe bought his ticket.

I'm basically trying to figure out if that woman would have gotten the same numbers as the elderly lady irrespective of time and other events.

Maggot's REALLY going to get bored now.
