Strong normality and modular normality

Topic:
The notion of normality was intended to capture random behaviour in the
digits of numbers, but some clearly patterned numbers pass the
normality test; we propose a stronger test of normality that is passed
by almost all numbers but failed by Champernowne's number. We also
propose a modular definition of normality to generalize the original
definition and make a wild conjecture.
