Correct.  I think most developers' expectation is that when
they call a random function, they'll get a random result each run.

So, that would seem to follow the "Princple of Least Surprise" --
which Ruby is terrific at honoring, by the way.  I can't think
of another language where I can type in code for such a long time
and have it run first try!

Thanks,
