address@hidden No matter how many numbers you see generated by the random number
+generator, you cannot guess the future numbers, and you cannot guess the seed.
address@hidden There are so many possible seeds that it would take decades,
centuries,

address@hidden The seed comes from a source that generates relatively strong
random
