    Same as above.  Having repeated numbers is not a big deal here, but we do 
want to have a comment declaring that this is safe and what the ramifications 
are.

> '''Implement a random number generator based on the XORShift algorithm 
> discovered by George Marsaglia. This RNG is observed 4.5 times faster than 
> {@link Random} in benchmark, with the cost that abandon thread-safety. So 
> it's recommended to create a new {@link XORShiftRandom} for each thread.'''
