I request something more substantial to the question than just cupcakes although I guess a cupcake really could change the trajectory of an asteroid. That's how the world works doesn't it? Little things, the smallest of things could have the biggest of impacts, butterfly effect and all. You could engage in the smallest of ways Geometer and have the most possitive of effects.
