^Yeah, so I was going through the library, looking up and down
   the stacks to see what caught my eye and stumbled upon one of my
   "Leaky Triangle" idea that I started putting my thoughts of on
   http://system-of-systems.com - and there it was: one of my leaky
   triangles, just sitting on the front cover of this 1200 page
   behemoth by Steven Wolfram - yeah the guy behind Wolfram|Alpha -
   and was like "doh!" - someone way smarter than me beat me to it!
   And thank goodness. While I suspect I'll end up disagreeing with
   the randomness side (to me randomness is the pattern that best
   describes what things look like when we don't understand them -
   and things we don't understand often looks alike) - but his
   stuff on Cellular Automata will keep me busy til I get through
   this monster of a book.

   Do I expect him to have "the answers" I was looking for? Nope.
   But I expect he'll at least give me something to work from,
   someone who is perhaps just as nutty as me but with far far more
   genius than I'll ever have.^
