		<description>No, no - it isn't any of those (although 4 is close).  It's the well known fact that all washing machines have a hyperintergalacticquantofootwarmerrestribution mechanism that swaps socks with other washing machines around the world.  Note that it always does this to ensure you end up with odd socks.  It doesn't ever transfer a sock that is already odd (so there's no point in putting in an odd one as a sacrifice).

By now, you've surely noticed that socks you've never seen before turn up in your washing machine.  This is the other half of the process.</description>
