http://bitcache.org/faq/hash-collision-probabilities
I read an example comment years ago when UUIDs came in, the gist of
which was (don't quote me), if you created one UUID every millisecond
for a million years, the probability of you seeing a collision was
(some small number ;-/). If I can find the quote I'll post it.
Of course, one day it *will* happen...
