For instance the odd frequency distribution of the occurrence of the numbers 1-9 as the first digit of data, obeying Benford's law. This amazing pattern occurring everywhere blew me away and I didn't rest until I understood. It turned out to be an epi-phenomenon of the fact that most distributions of real-life data are wide, wider than any normal distribution can capture. This simple observation -that anyone can easily see in the numbers of today's newspaper- led to a pet project: challenging and replacing the Gaussian distribution in scientific analyses by the far more generic log-normal distribution, providing better answers to research questions.And I do love kitesurfing.
