#89562 - random stuff
Responding to: ???'s previous message
people will now trot out there favorite methods of generating 'random numbers such as Michaels counter method or holding your breath for as long as possible while counting to 100 and whatever methods people tell you about they all have one thing in common and that is that they can all be said to be nothing like random.
I suggest that for properly random psuedo random number generators look for linear feedback shift register methods on google or psuedo random number generators such as RC4.
