Not terribly random:
7e55a4d0-1d31-102c-8104-001fd05507bc
7e8e9ed4-1d31-102c-8104-001fd05507bc
7ec56be4-1d31-102c-8104-001fd05507bc
7efbb50a-1d31-102c-8104-001fd05507bc
7f339bf0-1d31-102c-8104-001fd05507bc
But it's about as good as what has already come up :) I haven't come
accross UUID() before. It looks time based to me.
