You can always go chew someone out, and, maybe even get your money back .. that is all fine and good - - but, there is a solution and I thought I would share ...
an example would be to always make sure that the whichever is the least amount shows up in the same place in the block .... it will look as though you planned it, and most people will never even notice. <wave>
great idea
