> The standard statistical answer was to specify a number of firings (say
> 1,000) and a pair of percentages (e.g., 53% and 47%) and tell the client
> that if A receives a 1 in more than 53% of the firings, it can be
> regarded as superior; if it receives a 1 in fewer than 47%, B can be
> regarded as superior; if the percentage is between 47% and 53%, neither
> can be so regarded.
