Peter: others have mentioned it, but I'll chime in.  This is exactly 
what ERC.java does.  Check it out!

Your approach below will not work for you.  Rather, it will create a 
node which returns a different value every time it is called.  Sort of 
like the GP node equivalent of        (random 10.0)
