What proportion of events are saved on deterministic and on random triggers? Also, how much is that data used and for what other purposes?

I keep telling myself to check my university's homepage so I don't miss out on events like these (i'm not a physics student) as I already missed Lawrence Krauss earlier in the year. How long are you in Auckland for? It's a shame about the weather, we just had two weeks of sunshine.
