[math-fun] Ludicrous photo caption

In a story about an Olympic trial footrace in which the third-place finisher was too close to call, even with photos of the tape being taken every 1/3000 of a second, the NY Times photo caption of the finish of the race reads: "Jeneba Tarmoh (1) and Allyson Felix (2) crossed the finish line at exactly the same time." Amusing. --Dan
