I would say that one  the idea of randall is related to point the change climate denier invalid reasoning that despite all scenario of global warning show increase of temperature, the fact that none of each is very likely to be wrong then all are wrong. (The fallacy is  in the last then:  the reunion of little probability can lead to high confidence or a the reunion of sum of various probable things can lead to absolutely certain ) [[User:Xavier Combelle|Xavier Combelle]] ([[User talk:Xavier Combelle|talk]]) 02:35, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

I have to disagree with the original explanation (now fixed) that ''"there is no reason to have the locomotion speed of dogs as a parameter"''. Dogs are known to chase cats, cats kill a large number of birds, birds eat insects including butterflies. If dogs would run slightly faster there could be a significant variation in the amplitude of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_effect Butterfly effect]. --[[Special:Contributions/141.101.69.147|141.101.69.147]] 12:13, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

:Besides, the running speed of dogs would presumably impact how often, and where, one would experience raining cats and dogs.[[Special:Contributions/162.158.155.32|162.158.155.32]] 15:30, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

"[one extra cloud in the Bahamas] is most likely too specific and subtle a difference to be useful to the model." - Doesn't that depend on the size and disposition of said cloud?  I'd say the problem here is vagueness, rather than insignificance.[[Special:Contributions/162.158.155.32|162.158.155.32]] 15:35, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
