Seminumerical algorithms, 3rd edition 1997, page 3:
 Advances in technology made tables [of random numbers] useful again
 during the 1990s, because a billion well-tested random bytes could be
 distributed on CDROM.  George Marsaglia helped resuscitate random
 tables in 1995 by preparing a demonstration disk that contained 650
 random megabytes, generated by combining the output of a noise-diode
 circuit with deterministically scrambled rap music.  (He called it
 "white and black noise.")
