Ideally you would securely transfer a save of the page (which you saved on a secure computer, of course 
) to your [ur=https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/How_to_set_up_a_secure_offline_savings_wallet]offline savings wallet[/url] computer / OS.
You can then even use another computer to redownload and compare using a hash, to ensure that you haven't gotten a targeted malicious copy, however unlikely that may be.

Or compare to the signed SHA1 hash given by its author - the link to the signed message is in the page itself at the bottom.

Like an entirely downloadable version of Bitaddress.org.
Go to bitaddress.org - right click - view source - save it into a local .html file - go offline - run it.
The entire site is a single file with no references or dependencies. Even the images are base64-encoded to maintain it as a single file.

Start a secure browser session. Go to - https://www.bitaddress.org - disconnect from the internet. Reload page then print off as many copies as you need.

Are there any opensource, simple tools that can be used just to generate paper wallet addresses? I know there are some BTC wallet clients that do this, I believe, and some websites with client side tools that can be used offline, but I was hoping for something dirt simple that may also offer some ability to make sure its been peer reviewed and that the client I download is the same via checksum or something.
