Some people may be objecting to the characterization of alphabetical as random 
because they see "random" as "unpredictable" -- which alphabetical certainly is 
not... as long as you know the name of what you are looking for.  That is why I 
said it was arbitrary, which I think avoids the "random = unpredictable" 
problem.
