*Klunk* People are still a mystery after you get to know them; they'r
just not as /much/ a mystery. People are like any other chaotic system--
sure, you can predict their behavior within certain parameters once
you're acquainted enough with 'em, but they'll still surprise you.
(Interpersonal relationships also exhibit flicker noise, a hallmark of
chaos theory, but that's another matter altogether.)
