MOTM

Yea, fuzzing, that's what I was doing.  I just didn't want to appear 
to be too sophisticated by citing my use of advanced digital testing 
methodologies.  I thought it might go over everyone's head.  And, of 
course, instead of using the more traditional structured queues of 
fuzzy data, I wrote a real-time midi random event fuzzing generator. 
Now, of course, the use of fuzzing is controversial because of invalid 
input data. However, I wanted to ensure that the MOTM-650 would 
withstand a midi data stream security attack. You can rest assured 
that your MOTM-650 is being subjected to the most advanced and 
rigorous testing methodologies and the result will be advanced 
security in hostile midi environments.  Yea, that's what I was doing.
