|comment= Well, the tiger is what happens when people see shapes and shadows moving in the trees. It looks very frightening, but in fact is just shadows on leaves moving in the breeze - nothing frightening at all. The same thing happens with numbers - people see figures presented in such a way that they seem frightening when in fact they're not - The Tiger That Isn't.
