[Copernicus]

As I recall the two basic theorems of Chaos Theory approach two opposite ends...Strange Attractors, that result in apparently random processes approaching a set of fixed points, and Sensitivity to Initial Conditions, which is the butterfly/hurricane effect.

The latter is generally due to the complexity of the processes that lead to the final result, and the wide variation in potential final results, being so great that modeling the system becomes impossible.

While the number of permutations of a deck of cards is extremely large, it does approach the variety of weather patterns (for example), nor are the mechanical processes that lead to those outcomes complex to model.

Will changing seats change the future, yes. Does it have applicability or roots in Chaos Theory? As a casual reader (but very appreciative of fractal art) I think not.
