Well, I don’t care what anyone else says, humans are cool. Why you ask, well because they are so darned random at times, almost like a squash ball in full battle play. Let me explain what I mean by all that because I have a concept that could help us generate random sequences while enjoying one of the most fun and fastest paced sports; squash. Perhaps you have heard, or maybe you haven’t that generating a totally random set of numbers is very hard to do.
Mathematicians, many who play sports, and most that don’t have tried to conceive a way to come up with mathematics which would constantly generate random sequence numbers. This turns out to be very hard to do. Sure, there are numbers like pi which are seemingly random even when taken out tens of thousands of digits behind the decimal point, but because these numbers are so random, or appear to be, and because everyone already knows all the numbers of pi, we can’t use those. So then, I propose that we use a squash ball during play to give us random numbers.
What I propose is that we take the entire court and make it into a three-dimensional grid. Every time the ball hits a certain square that is recorded. The ball itself will also have a grid on it and will only record the specific grid on the ball that hit the specific grid on one of the walls of the court. Meanwhile the people who are playing the game of squash have a grid on their racket. Depending on where the ball hits on the racket and the specific grid on the ball which touches the racket at that point would record another number.
As the ball is played you would have total randomness. All this could be done by humans. If we had many courts being played in let’s say in Washington DC, making all the bureaucrats workout playing squash so they didn’t get too overweight, then the NSA and the military, along with the CIA could have tons of randomly generated numbers to help them protect their data in their computers systems. Corporations might do the same thing by allowing their workers during lunch to go play squash.
If everyone was playing squash everyone would be healthy because it is a superior cardiovascular workout. That would also drive our healthcare insurance premiums down and keep Americans fit and trim. Now that’s a random thought indeed. Please consider all this and think on it.
