I'm open to suggestions, I can't use this one anymore anyway because I asked for help publicly with it. I'm probably going to write a new one instead of an Alder-32 hashing method; I just need it to be reliable and secure that's all. I've never worked "close to the machine" with bits, so this is a newer step.
