I made a long simulation of snowie.met vs woolsey met 10,000 5p matches,
it was 51.7% - 48.3%. A smaller simulation of snowie.met vs. zadeh.met
(1,000 matches) showed 52.4% - 47.6%. I agree that this sample isn't big
enough, but it was big enough for not trusting zadeh.met anymore.

Didn't you also make a _very_ long simulation comparing mets?
