6 Lava lamps + 6 digital cameras
results in truly random seed numbers.

Strange but true.

Maybe you could go at it backwards.

put origVariable into newVariable
repeat for (the number of lines of origVariable - numberOfLinesWanted) --In
other words x-y
 delete line random(the number of lines of newVariable)
end repeat

newVariable should now contain y lines
