I was making a joke, as I happened to notice un-UUID =3 U-s just as I was 
writing that.  Universally unique ID = UUID, un-UUID (not universally 
unique ID) = UUUID = U^3ID. =:^)

Of course formally it'd be NUID (not/non- unique) or some such, but un-
UUID served my purpose well enough, including the joke once I noticed it, 
so...
