I fixed the problem with the Printable Version. In the future if you discover a bug, please click the Report button and describe the problem so that I am aware of it. As it was, I stumbled on this problem by accident. Thanks

i have noticed many states lottonumbers coincides with the dates,and it multiples of it ,say for example if date of draw is 6th then lotto numbers comes like 4,ie 6-2. then 12, 22 ,29,36 . These are almost multiples or nearer to multiples of the lotto dates.anyone pls workout any mathematical formula on that basis plsAll members pls note this thanks
