I've talked to several people who have been told “events of probability 0 are not necessarily impossible” and mentally appended “…just very unlikely” which is not at all the right way to think about it. I've seen people worry that a randomised algorithm terminates with probability 1, and think that means there's a possibility it will run for ever.
