I saw this - pretty cool. Randomness from a physical object, strange to even think about. Could they make a perpetual randomness machine from this? I wonder what effect this may have on cryptography.

I think this will stand cryptology on its head. The whole idea of bypassing logarithms will blow code cracking out of the water.
