Ergodic
adjective: positive recurrent aperiodic state of stochastic systems; tending in probability to a limiting form that is independent of the initial conditions.
Really now, the word "ergodic" is a contrived mathematical term devoid of any semblance of meaningful semantical function.
Except to impress the non-cognoscenti.
And as such it will soon become the avant-garde by-word of today's scientific community.
Shame.
