Question of the Week suggestions
Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

The butterfly effect
Christmas is coming! As a child that meant that there was nothing to do but watch the muppets and eat chocolate until you were violently sick, while your parents did all the work.
Now you are grown up you have to rush around doing all the work. You can either approach this with the logistical foresight that is normally reserved for a major military operation. Or more likely run around the shops in a blind panic at quarter to five on December 24th.
Either way any small hiccup will snowball into a disaster. So tell us when has a small thing lead to a very large disaster?
