Not sure what one has to do with the other...would you believe me if I 
told you that I once saw a shaved muskrat named Sally?

Just to be clear, of course I think its *possible* that ShuffleMaster

sucked at doing its only job, but I just think the probability is so 
small its not worth worrying about.
