There should also be dice with NEGATIVE numbers, and some with both POSITIVE and NEGATIVE numbers! If you roll them in combination with other dice they would alter the outcome probabilities. Chessex has the right idea selling dice with non-standard numbers.
It could transform the game and have us worring about our PCs overall probability distributions rather than just +/-'s . :)

There may be more to the story here. These dice are not so much designed to cheat (but obviously you can if you choose to,)
Here is a cool article on the mathematics of dice (written by a sixth grader in England): http://plus.maths.org/issue41/features/hobbs/index.html die 1 has faces: 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4
Yet, together they roll the *SAME* distribution as two "normal" d6! Chessex rules!
