The "butterfly effect", which is really chaos theory, is the main reason that I don't trust any of the long-term climate computer models. Lorenz showed that for even a simple set of non-linear equations, the solution was heavily dependent on initial conditions. By the way, Lorenz discovered the beginning of chaos theory while trying to do weather prediction.

So, even if the climate model captured all of the effects (which they don't), they would need nearly infinite accuracy of the results to predict any long term behavior.

PS: The "Mononymous1 Effect" is identical to the "butterfly effect", except at a larger scale.

Yep, I am in agreement with all that you have said!
