ANNOTATION:
Fitness landscapes and Systems, Coupling

In any real manifold of Landscape and Systems, 
the fitness landscape values are co-dependent with 
contiguous systems. Each fitness landscape point may
be considered a time series of particular system(s), as 
 a function of,(weakly coupled),all other systems, 
ie.(Butterfly Principle). It therefore follows that the 
relationship between Fitness Landscapes and Systems is 
a union of these two sets into a single Land/Sys manifold.
  I guess that all Im really trying to say is that any 
model which incorporates Systems existing within the
potential wells of fitness Landscapes cannot be effectively
represented by seperate elements existing at time(t).
