Proving a PRNG is secure is a very difficult task and is impossible when the operating system is not built from source.  Quantum mechanics are non-deterministic and thus provide an alternative method of generating randomness.
Of course. Are you using a noise diode or a radiation source?

Radiation source.  I am planning on using Americium (Am-241) for safety reasons (reasonably available and an alpha emitter).
