I do understand that and think it is interesting.  I am only trying to 
remove the talk that mixes up nonlinear, chaotic, and stochastic notions 
into the approach to dynamic systems simulation, because the "dynamic 
systems" concept does not inherently depend on them.  Of course, once 
the thing is worked out, it ought to be able to simulate a chaotic 
system, too.

A strange beast indeed!
