It seems that Greg Skidmore and two of his colleagues won a $254,000,000 lottery jackpot.
I was Greg's mathematics professor in college. Since the lottery is a tax on people who are bad at math, I have mixed feelings: my position is roughly the same as that of a Sunday School teacher who finds out that one of his former pupils has won critical acclaim in the pornographic film industry.
Still, he was one of my favorite students, hardworking and honest. So I guess I'm happy about the whole thing.
