 My guess is that if there was a time that this <whatever> did not exist,
 but now does exist, then it cannot be random. It may be random for a
 billion years, or more, but it would eventually repeat.

 However, it something started at the instant of the big-bang, then its
 repeat cycle would be at least equal-to, or greater-than, known time and
 thus random.

Thank you. That puts me in good company.

Sick minds think alike.
