"In order to have random chaos, something would have to come from nowhere and introduced to somewhere. Since nothing can come from nowhere, nothing is random. It only appears in such ways while examining small samplings. Random chaos? Hardly possible as everything is simply a matter of reaction and measurable. The only unknown being the extent of our ignorance."

'Random Chaos', perhaps a contradiction in terms.

Still, I don't think the general public has come around to embracing the idea that, what we perceive as Chaotic is not fully random at it's core.

"Their is no limit to our ignorance. Socrates through Einstein have commented on that and I am certain many others. Hardly profound thought. We just don't know a whole hell of a lot."

The one 'constant' in all human affairs? Ignorance? :)
