The reason I was storing all of the number was that originally I thought that I might want to do things with them. Then I decided to scrap that idea and just go with a plain ol' generator. It was a remnant from a previous incarnation. With regard to strict, I always use it if I'm either writing a production script or a script that is going to be more than a few lines long. With something that is really short and isn't ever going to be in serious production use, I only use it about half the time.

I'm posting the modified code as I type this.
