Covid-19 and Chaos Theory
We're all trying in one way or another to make sense of the current situation that has disrupted "normality". Attached is a small contribution to that quest. Comments, critiques, additions and corrections are welcome. John Epps
Thanks John, and I like your new hair do/color! Thanks for sending 1 page -- I am getting behinder and behinder on keeping up. I had a question, though. You said: 1. Looking for thecause of the Coronovirus-19 outbreak is misguided. Too many factors are in playto blame one or two. China’s reticence, global warming, Trump administration’sde-funding of health care agencies, and our patterns of interaction all playeda significant role. "cause" as in single thing, or something/someone to blame seems misguided or a waste of time. However -- attempting to learn about it, what actually happened / is happening ("what's really going on") seems important, as well as noticing if there is any pattern in how it "pings" through the system so as to shape responses. Does that make sense? Jim Wiegel “That which consumes me is not man, nor the earth, nor the heavens, but the flame which consumes man, earth, and sky."

Dear John et al, Here in NY state the Governor’s press conferences are greatly appreciated. He uses what we would identify as the ORID method, repeating over and over again his message which is essentially that one can make a difference in socially distancing, wearing masks and being respectful to the emerging science...simple but not easy! Thanks John, Ellen Sent from my iPad
