Yes - I guess you're right about chaos theory. I was thinking it was random happenings that threw off calculations (e.g. weather forecasting) but it's cause and effect really, just something so tiny or far away or whatever that it's impossible to take into account. Oh well.

About tossing a coin, it could be that as it is utterly impossible for us humans to measure beforehand exactly how hard we will flick it, then for us that is random, even if technically it isn't. It's all how we perceive it, like you're saying I think. I'm sure a robot could be built to toss coins always heads.
