Quote: 
In Chaos Theory, the “butterfly effect” is the name given to the sensitive connection between initial conditions in which an insignificant event in one state in non-linear systems, can result in sometimes catastrophic events in the universal state.
 
In other words, although unlikely, it is possible for a butterfly flapping its wings in Texas to cause a typhoon in the Japanese Sea.
 
Case in point: In mid-20th Century America, an easy 18-year-old female hippie attending a Honolulu college hooked up with an older, alcoholic Kenyan man on a student visa, who had a wife and child back in Africa. And this less than significant event started the complete collapse and dissolution of the United States of America
