There are no flaming fanboys who defend, say, Wusthoff kitchen knives, regardless of the quality of those tools.
First of all, it's Wusthof(with an umlaut; Slashdot won't show it properly), not Wusthoff; second of all, these are the BEST knives made today. See their website for information.
The high cost of their knives is a common complaint from people who don't understand the the whole Wusthof EXPERIENCE. Typically these people use any old knives, even a set cobbled together from the thrift store. The worst is those folks who use SERRATED KNIVES. This is unconscionable, and it's almost impossible to even talk to those people.
The bright spot is more people are SWITCHING to Wusthof. I know I did, and I'll never look back.
Complex behavior from simple rules is different. A simple model could include the concept that the earth orbits the sun rather than vice versa, while simple rules could be as simple as, "look at your predecessor and his neighbors who are all either black or white, and based on their colors, choose a color for yourself from the set {black, white} (256 rules total)."

FTA: "The problem? And all too-common problem with anything to do with information and analysis: human error."
That's mean.
What's "logical" about that domain?
What's more logical about that address than, say, "olympics.cityofchicago.org"?

Now I can build my robot.. My girl robot. This is going to be the best marriage ever.
I am a programmer, and I've been using the Expert Mouse trackball for several months. It's great.
I had pain in my wrist from mousing before switching to another (non-optical) version of this trackball, and the pain disappeared quickly.
Scrolling is really quick with it, and using your whole hand instead of gripping a mouse and using your wrist seems to help a lot.

Cluster need special software to take advantage of the disturbed computing.
Nicely put; sometimes I feel like my computing is disturbed, too.

I take exception to your statement that:

All complaints about the 'functionality' of this 'web app' aside, that is one UGLY looking website.
Cut to the heart of the matter; thanks for the insight.

Sounds like there's another myth to bust somewhere.
(1) Processes of change, especially those tied to other changing parameters, can be modeled quite accurately by systems of differential equations.
(2) In many systems, there is a point at which a seemingly gradual change takes an irrevocable turn for the worse.
(3) The Earth's climate involves many inter-connected processes of change.
(4) The Earth's climate could be modeled (with sufficient resources) by an enormous system of differential equations.
(5) Somewhere in there could be lurking at least one point of no return.
(6) Tipping point!
Yeah, slashdot won't allow the tag for this posting. But for crying out loud, how about E=mc^2, at least?
Damn. Self-proclaimed "nerds", unite! Or something.
It's not that hard, man..

Appropriate, insightful, and beautiful analogy. Thank you for reigning in the craziness.
Throw it all out.
