I stand corrected. They produce more work for the same input. I think my
point stands, Bob.

John,
I think you are misreading Stan’s comments a little. [Stan: please correct me
if I am wrong about that.] I think it would be fair to say that older car
engines were less well fit "between the energy gradient and the system
attempting to utilize it”. Another way of saying this is that
S: In decline in the actual material world that we inhabit. That is, the local
world -- the world of input and dissipation. I think the information problem
may be advanced if we try to explain why the energy efficiency of any work is
so poor, and gets worse the harder we work. This is the key

S:
Nice post, Bob. I agree pretty much. Brooks and
Wiley got slammed by Morowitz for using the
*Real* energy in their book, which being about
biology is the only sensible notion of energy.
There is still a need for a clear dimensional
analysis of the relation(s) between information
and energy.
Cari colleghi,
il 4 agosto ho scritto alcune cose che stranamente non sono state
considerate né positivamente né negativamente. Mentre sul concetto processo
di tras-in-form-azione o trans-in-form-azione sì è discusso abbastanza.
Forse troppo. Tra le cose già scritte il 4 agosto vi è il

Dear Mark and All,
I return belatedly to this short but key note of Mark's in which he repeats his
view, with which I agree, that Energy is a kind of information and information
is a kind of energy.
My suggestion is that it may be useful to expand this statement by looking at
