I tend to wonder what the purpose of complicating an issue is, when a simple solution exists.
For example, take the Butterfly effect (movie). They've tried so sincerely to explain the concept and its significance only to confuse people. Now take a typical Tamil movie (Aayitha Ezhuthu for instance) when a mini riot starts off in a scene. You have n distinct people in a room (A1,A2...An say, and by distinct, we mean they do not have anything in common, like they're not part of a group or something). A certain guy (A1 say) while talking to another guy (A2 say) hits him. This results in a random person Ai performing a scan around him to find the nearest guy (Aj say) and Ai and Aj start to fight (Note, Ai and Aj are distinct elements who do not know each other before). A definite set of solutions of ordered pairs (i,j) exists that constitutes the entire set of n people (n should be preferably even). However, please note that there need not be ordered pairs only, for if Aj is the closest to Ai, it does not imply that Ai is the closest to Aj. There might be an Ak who is closest to Aj, hence all the three Ai,Aj and Ak will fight. Thus, there can be triplets (i,j,k) , quadruplets(i,j,k,l), or in the limiting case, the whole set of n people (This might happen when all the n are in a line and the successive distances are like in an AP or something). So, what's happening is nothing but the Butterfly effect. In fact, it's so simple: Get all the people of the world together and make one guy hit someone. The whole world is in a world war. And as I type this, I realize that this scene could also be used to explain convection (bulk behavior), but ah, I'm lazy to draw the exact analogy.
Be simple.
