fauxkloreEdward Norton Lorenz died yesterday. For those unfamiliar with the name, he was a meteorologist and MIT professor and one of the major forces behind developing chaos theory. Lorenz attractors are interesting butterfly-shaped patterns arising from certain chaotic flows. (Or, if you're a mathematician, from certain non-linear equations, but I prefer to think more concretely.)
