new idea for random number generation

[Sandy Harris]

There are plenty of good online references for the issues raised in
this thread. I'll give two for each, a more-or-less standard reference
& a Citizendium article that I wrote much of & that may be easier
reading. Of course Wikipedia has both as well, and various crypto
texts have deeper detail.
