Smajt ma Smajtx 02

A great thinker dies, just came across this

Edward Lorenz, the father of chaos theory, died at his home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, on Wednesday. He was 90.

He was a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology when he came up with the scientific concept that small effects lead to big changes, something that was explained in a simple example known as the "butterfly effect." He explained how something as minuscule as a butterfly flapping its wings in Brazil changes the constantly moving atmosphere in ways that could later trigger tornadoes in Texas.

Not convinced that his theory is applicable to Maltese politics though.

il-manoċċa

Jekk tfittex fid-dizzjunarju ssib li manoċċa hija "ħamiema; tajra tal-karti". Mill-għoli imma fl-istess ħin b'rabta soda ma' l-art qed nimirħu fl-ideat progressivi ta' min jixtieq jara 'l din art twelidu f'qagħda aħjar milli hi llum. Ejja ttajjar magħna…

Il-manoċċa ħa ttir żgur kull nhar ta' Erbgħa, daqqiet bil-Malti u oħrajn bl-Ingliż
