LatinAssasin 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2004 Ok, I saw the Butterfly Effect a few weeks ago, and later realized what the title meant. Then I remembered back to about the 6th grade where I read a story about some dinosaur safari where people would go back in time to shoot dinosaurs that are going to die anyway. Some dude steers off the path, squishes a butterfly and changes the future. The Simpsons used this on one of their Treehouse of Horror installments. Can someone tell me the name of that story that inspired all this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supposedly, it comes from a Ray Bradbury short story called A Sound of Thunder. I think I remember that one. They go back in time, step on a butterfly, and when they get back everything is greyish and lacks any sort of vibrant colour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
