[quote author="wiredesignz" date="1244487140"]No UUID I create can be created by anyone else ever again.[/quote]

Sorry but that's wrong... maybe it won't be repeated any time soon, but there is a finite number (all be it a very large one).

It's the same with MD5, for a long time, some people thought that md5 will always give you a unique hash, but thats not the case (before you accuse me of being clueless, note I said 'some people thought', not 'I thought')
