many moons ago I wrote a little CGI program ... with time ^ $$ ... I posted about this to the newsgroup more than seven years ago ... Why, o, why, did you pick such a bad seed?
Perhaps it is a comon mistake for new people to random numbers and perl? It sounds like you learned from your mistake 7 years ago. =)

I was doing what was common practise back then. Since then
common practise has changed, and the documentation explicitely
warns against using time ^ $$. So, my question
remains, why did you choose time ^ $$?
