Dear Karl, your words are so intriguing, that I will shamelessy quote them (and you, of course!), in my next papers. I like very much your concept of sequential as well as commutative symbols in a biological context. Concerning your very interesting issue of the possible working principle t

Dear FISers, Apart from the very interesting critique by Sungchul, there is an intriguing comment I would like to make respect the new evolutionary views presented. I will risk to discuss on a topic, topology, too far from my usual fields. So I trust the benevolence of FIS readers. As far as

Dear FISers, Going to the extreme, I think this year opening lecture can be summarized in three contentious points. 1. That life's physiology is based on the conjunction of a few principles: neguentropy, chemiosmosis, and homeostasis-homeorhesis. 2. That communication (cell signaling) is an
