Still laughing...

You should have seen my face when I saw the edit summary, "pronounced jitters". Before I read it in context, I was picturing a roomful of generals being told that the Army, as well as the Marines, was being made a component of the Navy. :-)

Random numbers

Hi, could you have a look at what I found in my man pages: http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Talk:Unix_directory_structure ? I think at least one of random or urandom yields real random numbers as it uses environmental noise. However, the text in my manpage differs to the text of the article in which generator gives real and wich gives pseudo random numbers. Alexander Wiebel 06:25, 6 June 2008 (CDT)
