Why is it possible to have a family of six girls and no boys but extremely unlikely that there will be a public school with 500 girls and no boys?

The probability of a number of randomly selected people being all girls is approximately (1/2)n, where n is the number of people. For a larger number of people, this expression becomes smaller and smaller.
Please note that in the past, certain schools separated boys and girls (some schools only for boys, other schools only for girls). This might still be the case in some places. In this case, there is NOT a random selection.

high there...special interest=private interest...and if there is any public good arrising from a special interest it is accidental and arbitrary...and alas often absent...especially in big business...e.g. oil companies in bed with auto companies and rubber companies...sabotage street cars and elevated trains to replace with diesel buses....charged...found guilty...and fined one dollar... public interest...depending upon the nature of the majority(engaged democracy or apathetic re-public) would /should result in actions leading to the advancement of the public good...e.g. closing down streets to automobiles and opening those up to people on foot and on bicycles... its highly unlikely libraries would exist without people believing in the public good
What are Public event?
A public event is basically an event (party, gathering, meeting), where everyone can attend. For example: It could be a barbeque at a local Park. If it was a private event, that means that only certain people are allowed to attend. The best way to explain a private event would be a celebrities funeral. Only family members and close friends would be on the list to attend.
