Anyone care to explain what Strange Attractors are? I'm afraid Wikipedia would be incredibly technical and blow my brain up.

An attractor is a point, region or set in a dynamical system (a system that defines its future state as a function of its current state) that captures the orbits of nearby points. Strange attractors are attractors with chaotic dynamics. I'm not sure I recall the exact definition of chaos, but I believe it requires dense periodic orbits, and that given any two open sets, the orbits of the points in those sets will eventually overlap, and that no matter how close together two points are, their orbits will eventually separate. If you can't take perfect measurements, knowing the state of a chaotic system only lets you predict future states up to a limited time into the future - that's why we can't accurately predict the weather more than about four days in advance, and why we don't know which side of the sun the planets will be on after a billion years.
