The research with the random number generators has been expanded in recent years in order to test whether large scale cultural phenomena cause similar deviation from the random norms. Devices have been located in major cities (certainly across the US, but around the world, too...I think).
9-11-01 caused the largest deviation yet recorded in the course of that experiement. This is exciting research, and a terrific comfort to pragmatic philosophical aesthetes like me.
