On behalf of myself, Brinn, and Aldair, I would like to extend an
apology to everyone suffering through the perhaps boring debate spawned
in this news. Fact of the matter is it sprung forth over disputes on how
I defined Chaos in the recent Lethe-sponsored debate. Truth is that
Brinn mistakenly (again!) spread misinformation. No one claimed that
"Chaos is the primal force of change--that Chaos causes change" (Brinn,
public 10245). But rather it was stated in the debate that, "Change is
the prime truth of existence. Perhaps the best attribute one can give to
chaos IS that of change. Specifically, it does not bind to one way. The
key is that it is adaptive, changing as needs demand." So it says that
it embraces change, not that it is the one and only cause of change.
Therefore, the ongoing debate besmirching this news was rather
irrelevant, sprung forth from yet another of Brinn's mistaken
misquotations. Had I been alert, I would have realized this and not
dragged out the inaccuracies being spread by the misinformation of
ignorant others.
