Probably offline, but… serialVersionUID isn't randomly generated. It's
calculated using the types of fields in the class, recursively. The actual
algorithm is quite arbitrary, but not random. The automatically generated
serialVersionUID should change only if you add/remove class fields (either on
the class itself, or to the class of nested objects).

*sigh* Java chases me. 8+ hours of java work everyday, and when I finally get
home… there it is, looking at me again. *sob*
