+# Random token generator to create strong secure text tokens.
+#
+# ==Example
+#   RandomToken.new => "avzwbnxrem"
+#
+# RandomToken is a string, so you can do any string methods on it.
+# You can change how tokens are randomly created however you want.
+#
+# This generates a 16-character token of all lowercase letters.
+#
+# We know users are confused by upper/lower case so we use only lowercase,
+# and by letters vs. numbers like "oh" and "zero" so we use only letters.
+#
+# We choose this as an acceptable tradeoff between usability and complexity.
+# We also choose this because it is much better for users on smartphones.
