Jerry W once told us that if you shuffle a deck of (52) cards seven times that that will achieve as much randomness as you will get. Maybe he was right too.

It's funny that you comment, because I was thinking while writing this about ranting to you about the movie Pi about how our math genius hero said to the Jewish cult people "I'm sure you've intoned every 100 digit number there is" and I offered a presentation very similar to the above of how ridiculous that was, and how disappointed I was in hearing a supposed math genius say something so ridiculous. Anyway, I'm quite sure you liked the combinatorics presentation back then too. :) :) We like you too…
