Rob: The point is quite simple, clock time is 'predictable' however the change-in-world-population-count is not predictable.

To generate "near-pure" random numbers, it is necessary for the system to have an interface/input from the physical real world. In this scenario, the physical real world is the growth in human population, the interface is the count in human population numbers.

it's not very good..i can't run it

All you need... is one piece of line...

to control that line you need 30 of it;

good example of that...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but this submission isn't doing what it's claiming to do: The seed is just the starting point for the random number generator. Changing the seed in the way described above will give a different set of pseudo-random numbers but it won't make the series of numbers itself any more or less random.

In situations where you want a new random seed then either population or CPU time are equally valid. World population is basically just an exponential function of CPU time so both are predictable. However, in selecting a new random seed the predictability isn't relevant (unless you're doing cryptography), you just want to set your random seed to a new value. Of course, there are also situations where you want the random seed to have the same value on each run.
