Apollyon, that was... A singular thing to say. You are the personification of chaos theory? I am... Intrigued.

I once said, "for I am the butterfly who flaps his wings and causes a typhoon on the other side of the world." Do you understand the intonation? I suspect that you do...

I am a chaos avatar; this has a very special meaning... I am a rare creature; are you the same? Or is your meaning different?

Elaborate, if you care to; or pose riddles, if that is your way; for riddles are but masses of chaos waiting for a lucid and rational mind to see the inherent order in what most would perceive to be nonsense...

What is it you toast with, by the way?

Good fortune,

- Icarus is of the chaos...

Because my life is riddled with synchronicities, and chaos theory is the only rational explanation.

Though, when you think about it, everyone embodies the chaos theory. Are our actions responsible for a whole slew of unforeseen, indirect events, or are those events preordained? I'm going to go with chaos theory. Ever read A Sound of Thunder? Think about it. Who knows what repercussions changing my daily routines could have on the future.

And I'm toasting with a shot of Stolichnaya, followed by a glass of I hate Newton's physical laws because they oppress me.

Cheers!


If you don't mind I'll stay away from the Stoli, it does strange things to my head.

Do you represent deterministic or non-deterministic chaos? :wink:

Our sensory issues are an extremely sensitive dependence on the initial conditions.......

I love chaos, too. If every creation of the universe had a number to designate its level of chaos, and space is zero, what are you?
What was Einstein? Would a whale beat us? What would have the highest level of chaos, what creation? Is there a limit? If God beats all, then He comes last. Which would make him the first, unless it never ends. That gives Jesus the Oedipus complex. Pure evolution. hmm

Synchronicities? Then you can perceive the threads in the lattice of coincidence? That is a rare gift; an even rarer gift is being able to connect the threads, to be able to glimpse the lattice itself. You can't see it if you look directly at it; it is only something that can be seen out of the corner of one's eye... But part of the riddle is that the lattice is (at least) four-dimensional. Look at it just right (which involves not looking directly at it), and you may be able to perceive some interesting things...

There is much in the universe that might defy rational explanation, no?

"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
" - Hamlet

Chaos theory is but a glimpse of something very much larger, a tip of the proverbial iceberg, so to speak.

Unknown repercussions; fate and free will; these are functions of being pinned down by the fourth dimension. When we look back, all is fixed, ordained as it unfolded; when we look forward... Can we see anything? Can we do more than guess? I wonder sometimes... But to toy with things man was not meant to know invites madness; Cassandra understood that...

I have not read "A Sound of Thunder"; I shall have to pick up a copy, and think about what you said.

Vodka, microbiology, chaos, and Asperger's; quite an intoxicating mixture, if I dare say so myself...

Good fortune,

- Icarus is more of a Scotch guy...

About a month and half ago, I began a journal entry:

Sitting on a short stack of pine needles. Behind me is a soaking wet tennis ball.

I then considered the level of chaos that I was experiencing, and decided that one day, to further it, I would repeat those words....
