Yes. I believe it's called the Bernulli Effect? I probably didn't spell that right haha, but I always wondered what would happen if you were to build a toilet EXACTLY on the equator. It's been on my bucket list for years.

1. Build a toilet on the equator.
2. Flush it.

Actually, I think it's called the Butterfly Effect?
....taught by one, Dr. Ashton Kutcher?

Actually, the Butterfly Effect was first thought of by Ray Badbury in his short story "The Sound of Thunder." Well worth the read, if you ever find an old SciFi anthology.

Sorry to interrupt your thread, PopClick.

But while we are at it - What is your favourite song?

Didn't he also teach Bad Haircuts 101?

I couldn't find a video of it, but this one is simply amazing. It stands out as probably the best worship song I have ever heard.

Worthy is the Lamb

Beautiful Savior and Lord of the Earth

Innocent blood sacrificed
Offering life to an unholy world
Behold the love in His eyes


Christ our redeemer has borne every sin
Born every guilt every shame
All who are willing may come unto him
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain


I stand before him a child of the cross
Clothed in His mercy and grace
If I offer all to Him, nothing is lost
Behold the love on His face


Christ our redeemer has borne every sin
He tore the curtain away
Opened the door so we all may go in
Worthy is the lamb that was slain

Edward Norton Lorenz,
a American mathematician, meteorologist and the pioneer of chaos theory, coined the term, “Butterfly Effect”.

“a property of chaotic systems (as the atmosphere) by which small changes in initial conditions can lead to large-scale and unpredictable variation in the future state of the system”

I think Wikipedia might have it as this too? Every place says the same?
Ray's story was inspired off of the butterfly effect theory, ......which Lorenz later coined, and brought to pop culture?

Because copy/paste does weird things to the fonts.

I would run fast, if I were you. :D

Twice.

It is correct. :p
Plus, I like messing with Angela.

I'm going to have to call you on this, Reborn.

According to sources, Bradbury wrote this story in 1952! Lorenz didn't discover it till 1961, and didn't present it till 1963, although it was finally popularized at a talk he gave in 1972.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_effect

Fiction beats science! LOL


Well, .....I got you to look into it, right?

You learned something today, because of Reborn!! lol.

Don't forget this Butterfly Effect, playing on Netflix :)
