[Ron] I'm not questioning the reversal of time as much as the dissipation of radiant energy, some of which is absorbed into surrounding atoms, the question I have is it dissipation into nothing or is it A matter of the dissipation is so ongoing that it becomes immeasurable. Does energy decay or does it transform constantly?
[Krimel] Heat is basically the motion of molecules. Energy in the environment we live in supports the transformation of energy into many forms; this is not typical in most places in the universe. On earth the heat of sunlight causes the variety of nifty things we have here; motion of the atmosphere, currents in the oceans, the cycling of water, eventually photosynthesis and life. It is all sunlight trying to escape into space. See, I can be animistic too. But heat dissipates as the motion lessens. Heat spreads like a fluid from areas of high concentration to areas of lower concentration. Eventually it is supposed to just spread out until nothing is moving. That's the bright future of the Heat Death. moq_discuss mailing list Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/
