"According to 'The Mathematics of Terror,' an article by Andrew Curry in the latest issue of Discover magazine, acts of terrorism aren't random at all - not mathematically speaking, anyway...Terrorist and guerrila killings follow an L-shaped power law curve. The smaller the event governed by the curve, the more likely it is to occur - and the larger it is, the less likely."
