Negative...you get a different result for the same numbers instead of the
same result for the same numbers, which is important.  Thanks though.

The mucky hack I posted almost works, and is repeatably random (gives same
output for same numbers), but the output is weird. It is random, but has
some near repeats in random places :) . However, I can get some cool
artistic uses out of the result if I scale the input, and it is smooth like
it is supposed to be. Gives a "stringy" noise output, with some vertical
anomalies.

I need that original one to work somehow,  I do believe.
