Yes, sure but the singular focus is really the issue which I am afraid has
really made the LO chat room unproductive and uncreative almost like an
introverted learner.

There are some really interesting relationships, and with fractals too.
The rabbit scenario is very interesting because it is similar to the
basins of attraction of the NK model and also to the EKS spirals, and
processes. One can draw a really neat spiral using the golden mean from
the Fibonacci series. Some of the nature relationships are really
exciting.
