Does anyone know the statistical chance of an individual being born? I tried
to work it out using fairly rudimentary sources; number of generations that
Homo Sapiens have been around, average number of sperm used in the process,
number of eggs available, the right people meeting, that type of thing. And
it turns out that I probably don't exist at all, and if you are reading
this, neither do you!

Well I didn't read it, hence I must exist.
