\begin{itemize}
\item Formal Basis

\item A major difficulty in formulating the theory of probability is
that one {\em must\/} relate it to the real world.

\item Cramer amusingly notes that some of the axiomatic approaches to
probability are comparable to definitions of geometry in terms of the
fundamental idea of a point as a limit of a spot of chalk dust of
smaller and smaller size.

\item I will first dispose of the 24 lectures that I suffered on formal
probability by noting that the theory can be based on the following
axioms:
