​Numbers can't count, but I can count numbers. Rocks can't count but I can
count rocks because the matter and energy in my brain is arranged in such a
way that it enables me to do so but they are not arranged that way in a
rock. The arrangement of matter and energy can be characterized as
information and that is why information is as close as you can get to the
traditional concept of the soul and still remain within the scientific
method.
