<p>after all I know a number of ppl who name themselves after entropy</p>
<p>"happyentropy" (hobbies: increasing the world's entropy)
"entropy11"</p>
<p>and it has so many wikipedia entries! and it's an excuse you can use for everything! and since it is a constant that explains so much! even creationists like the word. and it's what information theory revolves around. and it has the potential to explain LIFE, THE UNIVERSE, AND EVERYTHING. And death.</p>

(It's not too long, but you'll need like a ten-minute attention span to appreciate it, so do so. You should read more literature in general, actually. It's like being friends with the characters, except you can't talk back to them.)</p>
<p>ah interesting isaac asimov. okay i'm reading it now.</p>
<p>k i lost my attention span on my psets and read it. wow - it's really good! damn, that's the really good thought scenario that i've thought about all the time (i've had this star-first mindset for such a mindset, but the entropy-first mindset is far more comprehensive and subsumes the star-first mindset). and it's very nice that asimov thought of it back in the 1950s - without even having to consider the expansion/contraction of the universe or the specifics of stellar evolution and death. and AC is particularly interesting. I'm trying to find loopholes through which I could use my uncertain knowledge to possibly create some "supernatural" but inexplicable-to-science entities... ("supernatural" entities of the gaps so to speak). [that still happen to be consistent with our limited-to-one-earth observations].</p>
<p>(after all the specifics of stellar evolution are merely one ad hoc solution to the problem of entropy, just like carbon-based lifeforms are another ad hoc solution to the entropy problem)</p>
<p>Entrophy is interesting. You really do make strange threads.</p>
<p>I find extropy/transhumanism more fascinating.</p>
<p>Apparently Chuck Norris also finds it interesting: so interesting, in fact, that he can break all the laws of thermodynamics.</p>
<p>1st Law: Chuck Norris can create & destroy energy.
2nd Law: Chuck Norris can reduce the entropy of the universe.
3rd Law: Chuck Norris can reach absolute zero.</p>
<p>(Aw, come on, I couldn't resist!)</p>
<p>^That is really random... Did you make that up yourself or find it somewhere?</p>
