Hello all. Someone mentioned this on IRC last night, and it sounded like a really cool idea, so I thought I'd mention it. The idea is to generate random numbers using a geiger counter tube and a small portion of radioactive substance (like perhaps the stuff they use in smoke detectors?) Would that be random enough? I thought it was a neat idea anyway. Christopher
