I wasn't referring to that snippet, but another one discussing the evolution of "superclusters" of galaxies. The theory predicts that the universe will ultimately come to be dominated by said clusters. The snippet I mentioned seems to be referring to our measured velocity of ca 600km/s in the dire

Dear Charles: The "Nothing" can not contain that much information if it is not balanced out. If it was completely balanced then the "Somethings" would have the same duration which would be net information in violation of the postulate. Hal At 9/13/01, you wrote: >It would certainly be diffic

This is a simple and short effort to present my current ideas. To aid communication it is not intended to follow an established means of mathematical expression. I am completely out of time so I hope it reads ok. 1) The single postulate is "The total system contains no information." 2) The "
