Caro Francesco,
Ho letto la tua lettera con grande attenzione e comprensione. Io accettare
completamente la sorveglianza, che l'informazione è diversa in sistemi diversi.
Questo è esattamente l'essenza della teoria di riflessione, che descrive i
molti livelli di riflessione - fisici, chimici,
Otto, an interesting call, for a theory that brings together the brute
force of an abiotic universe and information.
Here's a short timeline that pulls the brute force elements together as

Dear all,
Just a quick reply to Howard's fascinating account of cosmic history.
It seems what is crucially needed is a theory that brings together "brute
force" on the one hand - laws of nature "blindly" colliding and colluding,
from quarks to planets - and "information" on the other - from
