[aklug] Re: Entropy Key

I've actually been very happy with 'haveged'. The entropy key is much more secure given
that you assume people will have access to your hardware and network streams and that it
is at all likely you will be interesting enough to anybody for them to attempt to insert
an entire block of entropy into your random generator entropy pool using nothing more than
massive amounts of assumptions.

Ahem.. I digress.

I want like 8 of these.
