+generator, you cannot guess the future numbers, and you cannot guess the seed.
+@item There are so many possible seeds that it would take decades, centuries,
+or millenia for an attacker to try them all.
+@item The seed comes from a source that generates relatively strong random
+data on your platform, so the seed itself will be as random as possible.
