aye.

it's probably my interest in crypto that makes me obsess about the quality 
of PRNGs, so feel free to tell me i'm nuts... how about a big lookup table 
(big being 256-1024 values, derived from high quality RNG) and a function 
that periodically selects a new pseudo-random location within the table to 
read from and/or reverses the read direction.

things were so much simpler when a "sample and hold" circuit was just 
that, derived from transistor noise.
