Anything. A bad way of saying the universe is chaotic, and one can
pick any old measurement of it as an example: The temperature goes
up and down, staying within bounds and is only predictable in the
general sense.

Chaos is safe; order is dangerous. Although I imagine with a .mil
address you won't quite agree with that sentiment.

The universe also has a random factor so maybe chaotic isn't
the right category of things fuzzy.
