When I was in grad school working on chaos, Lorenz visited one of my PhD advisors, Eugenia Kalnay.
He was still trying to distill & communicate nonlinearity 50 years after his 1963 paper.
He wrote this quote on a piece of paper that was pinned to her office door thereafter. https://twitter.com/manlius84/status/1485742439763742723
“Chaos: When the present determines the future, but the approximate present does not approximately determine the future”

We join with @RACInational, @StatSocAus, @AstroSocAus, & @austMS to call for amendments to the Australian Research Council Act 2001 to ensure the independence of the ARC processes.
