5 degrees of separation

Was the random flutter of a butterfly's wings 8 months ago deep within the Amazon rain forests the root cause of last month's tornado in Queens, New York?

 

I, for one, shout a resounding yes!!

addendum to the description:

 

After I uploaded this, my friend, Kumikosan, took a look at it. She told me she didn't understand the description at all. I told her of course she didn't, her being from Japan, a poor, undereducated, third world country, she didn't have the back ground in Zen Buddhism and philosophy in general to comprehend such deep meaningful, abet, esoteric and complex concepts.

 

After she finished calling me a number of names I couldn't find in my Japanese/English dictionary she explained what her problem was;

 

First; Tornado; With the fount used the 'r' and 'n' kind or run together and can be mistaken for an 'm', -so she read tornado as tomato.

 

Second she read the capital letter 'I', in I for one, as the numeral 1 hence reading that phrase as 'one for one'...

 

Hum, I think I like the description the way she read it a lot better! :-)
