	What's a "truly random" sequence?

	I think I know what you mean, because I used to think the same, but
that's just my bias - I don't think there's any mathematical backing. Or
rather, the "truly random" is just yet another distribution  like the
Gaussian, etc.

	(And be careful when you say Normal. The distribution called "normal"
in probability is the Gaussian distribution, which I think is not what
you meant).
