Just because the seed may have occurred 13.7 billion years ago and we don't know what that initial state was and we couldn't possibly calculate all the interactions since, doesn't mean that everything since hasn't been happening in accordance with some universal formula and in absence of randomness. We know that there appear to be certain laws in physics, would they not have applied to that initial state in a non random manner? It may just be that due to the hugantic sample space from which to draw arbitrary values that we think things are random. Food for thought :) Cheers, Rob. -- ...........................................................
