I'm pretty sure that's an invocation to He Who Must Not Be Named.

No two card shuffles will ever be the same.
Combinations of card shuffles, 52! is 8.06581751709439e+67.
Population of the Earth (possible number of people that could shuffle a deck of cards) is 6,648,429,413. That’s 1.2131914195137428317011748952143e+58 shuffles per person. Divide 1.2131914195137428317011748952143e+58 shuffles by number of seconds per year (31536000) and you get 3.8470047549268861989509604744239e+50. That means: if every person alive on the Earth started shuffling one deck of cards per second, it would take 3.8470047549268861989509604744239e+50 years to get through all the combinations.

Looks like Pie has begun her countdown to New Year's Eve ... no wait ... was that a decimal point I saw there? Oh no, she's calculated Pi to the first decimal place and it looks like she's prepared to go TO INFINITY AND BEYOND!

I just know I'm going to kill this thread. I've killed many a thread in my time and this one is ready for extinction.
