in thread rand() function on Windows systems

That's strange. I get the same result on my systems using old and new versions of Perl.

print srand( $_ )."\n" for 1 .. 10;; 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

    From the pod:

    starting with Perl 5.14, it returns the seed.
    . My default perl is still 5.10.1.

    With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
    Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

    In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
