Chaos Theory or Furry Vengeance

As the examination of temporal anomalies continues we come to the problem posed when a squirrel interferes with a pass receiver so that Lou Dorchen loses a bet. The issues at hand, discussed in Hot Tub Time Machine part 12: a squirrely butterfly, or pass on this, are whether that was accidental or intentional–does the squirrel know that by interfering with the pass receiver he ruins Lou’s day, or is this simply a disruption in squirrel migration patterns, a butterfly effect, an unpredicted consequence of the time traveler’s arrival?
Meanwhile, I have the new mail client working well enough that I am receiving mail from all boxes and able to send it in reply, although I am not certain of what names and headers appear on those replies. I might have to send some mail to myself to figure out the next steps. I also will want to see what kind of folder rules I can create to sort mail as it arrives, instead of having it all pour into one box.
The day progresses. Progress has been made.
