This is a fine concept and one of the great powers of many-worlds is
that they can allow us to introduce such new concepts into our 
thinking. I did not mention Goldilocks worlds in my current blog at
http://ttjohn.blogspot.com/ 
or egroup at [EMAIL PROTECTED]  (moderated posting possible 
on some many worlds topics) yet but I covered Harry Potter 
worlds and the Deutsch interpretation up to a point this week 
with more to follow soon on category theory and possibly 
Goldilocks worlds will be dealt with.

Goldilock world

2005-11-17 Thread George Levy





Along the line of Jorge Luis Borges a
blackboard covered in chalk contains the library of Babel (everything)
but no information. Similarly a white board covered with ink also
contains no information. 
Interestingly, information is minimized or actually goes to zero when
the world is too large as the plenitude, or too small. Information is
maximized when the world is neither too large nor too small. We live in
a Goldilock world.
