@item 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.

@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.
