At the risk of prolonging this thread, there has been recent
discussion over how long a time period must be analysed to get a
correct distribution. One value put forward was 4800 years. While
this is very interesting in a theoretical way, what about the last
hundred years or so? If Friday 13ths are unevenly spread through the
4800 years there must be local maxima and minima. Are we currently in
an epoch in which there are a comparatively large number of Friday
13ths?
