+    /*** discussion of the sampling and algorithm choices:
+
+         We want stats->nSubsample pixels.  How many good pixels do we actually have?  
+
+         There are a few domains of interest:
+
+         If nGoodPixels < f1 * nSubset, we should fail [1]
+         If nSubset >= nGoodPixels, we should just loop over all pixels [2]
+         If (nSubset <  f2 * nGoodPixels) and (nGoodPixels >= f3 * nPixels), we should just use the random sample technique [3]
+         If (nSubset >= f2 * nGoodPixels) or  (nGoodPixel  <  f3 * nPixels), we should use the Fisher-Yates technique.
+
+         to use Fisher-Yates, we need to have a copy of the pixels so we can re-shuffle.  We
+         should not do that with the whole list unless we need to.
+
+         [1] we just have too few samples to be useful; f1 ~ 0.01?
+
+         [2] we need to select from all pixels to reach the desired sample size
+
+         [3] this avoids a full-image-sized alloc, but only makes sense if nGoodPixels is actually
+         large.  f2 ~ 0.01, f3 ~ 0.1 (4 tries per success on average)
