Either I'm getting old or I need another drink, but I have absolutely no idea what this sentence means - at least in the context of living systems.
Punisher, pretend that I'm ignorant and please explain just what you are describing here. Since I really only understand those things that have a relationship with the real, concrete, empirical world, a specific example from nature - not pseudo-philosophical handwaving - would be appreciated. (Cobra, if you're reading this, I see the quoted sentence as a prime example of a Shannon-Weaver system that has reached maximum information entropy.)
Honestly, from here, it appears you've managed to put pop pseudo-science, argument from personal incredulity, and cyber-babble into one sentence. Impressive...
