The Effect of Chaotic Collards on Organically Cute Iguanas
One element of Chaos Theory is the quest to find the connections between events or objects that are apparently not connected. Here's an example showing the previously unknown connection between Iguanas and collards (at least to a non-lizard owner such as the author). Along the way we learn the virtue for one's health of green leafy vegetables and a bit about the care and feeding of cute lizards.
