Hello Ode,

When I studied chaos theory in school I was sure this was something that I
would never be able to actually apply.  Now I am not so sure...

I have played with little children who can do a great job of connecting the
dots, and do so effortlessly.  Perhaps we just need to be a little more
creative in our approach.

On the other hand, who needs dots anyway... :)

Tom
