Chaotic means "from a complete mathematical description of all the components of a system, one cannot determine to within arbitrary precision the mathematical description of the system at a later time" -- in other words, two initical conditions with even very tiny differences in the specifications may lead to wildly varying time histories down the road.

BTW, If you want to talk about CHAOS, YHAOS, then you may want to revisit your keyboard when you next enter your screen name.

Cheers!

OK, so my crystal ball is broken.

BTW, If you want to talk about CHAOS, YHAOS, then you may want to revisit your keyboard when you next enter your screen name.

If that’s a crack about my typing abilities, then I get it. If it’s something else, you are going to have to elaborate (should you be so moved by the Spirit).
