Two friends, Helen and Harriet, have a coin. Helen spent all day flipping the coin thousands of times, and observed that it turned up heads 60% of the time. So Helen assigns a probability of 0.6 to the event that a head turns up. Harriet, who is unaware of Helen's flipping experiment, reasons that the coin has two sides, each side being equally likely to show up. So Harriet assigns a probability of 0.5 to the event that a head...
