One four-leaf clover in 10,000? I wonder who made the count?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) April 20th, 2012

I read an article that stated, “for each 10,000 three-leaf clover, there is one with four leafs”. This started my brain to thinking, who was the person that conducted this count and how scientific was thier experiment? I can just see this person sitting in a field of clover and counting each one by hand.

Question: does one four-leaf clover truly exist within a field of 10,000? If so, is there documented proof?

What is your theory?
