References

  • This item is a reference to the famous chaos theory concept known as "the butterfly effect", where small changes in variables can cause a great change in outcome (as in a butterfly flapping its wings affecting weather hundreds of miles away).
  • The comment about Jeff Goldblum references the film Jurassic Park, where Jeff Goldblum plays scientist Ian Malcolm, who specializes in chaos theory.
