Fads and scientific discovery have a lot in common, as with
any human accomplishment the come about through means that are “messy,
haphazard, misdirected, and heavily influenced by chance.”
Dr. Sandra Foster’s job as a sociologist is studying the
origins of fads for the HiTek research cooperation. She wants to know how and
why fads begin, enter Flip a mail clerk who delivers a box.
The box was for Dr. Turnball, which takes Sandra to Dr.
Bennett O’Reilly. Bennett is studying chaos theory and its trends on behavioral
patterns. Only thing is Chaos Theory is not a fad and his funding form was not
delivered by Flip at the right time.
Sandra and Bennett will then team up to advance their
scientific discoveries of behavior patterns of fads and chaos. What will they
find? The point of origin? The bellwether? Maybe, even Love?
