4.4 Information

My former conclusion that the origin of all natural semantic information or DNA must come from outside the universe is not of itself a 'proof' since it does not deal with the probabilities however small of accidental assembly of such a system subject to some preferential selection. We'll come to that later. But it does present the basis of a very considerable herdle to such an idea which must be answered by that idea. There are other types of information or meanings of the word in use which now need an airing.

Physicists talk of 'cause and effect' as the mechaism for the preservation of information in the uiniverse. It is the same meaning as the answer to the question: What actually travelled via the Olympic Torch relay from Athens to Bieging? Assuming the flame did not go out, it was the ignition temperture of the gas used. The whole reason for the assumed hyper-inflation following the big bang is the need to commuicate temperature evenly throughout and end up with what we see today. Lets call this 'event history' information or Ieh as opposed to semantic or signal information Is. Its what makes predictability possible concerning the interaction of matter and energy according to the known laws of physics and the verification and hence validity of those laws.

Notwithstanding the odd black hole we may observe the state of the entire universe at any future point in time records the entire history of it. And if you have heard of the 'butterfly effect' you may understand that record is complete down to the motion of a single sub-atomic particle at its begining! This I think was partly at least the reason for Albert Einstein's belief that the whole thing was pre-determined. On a personal level the universe records every thought and motion you have ever made.. which might be a problem if there exists a mind out there big enough to read it!

Have a nice day..
