My thoughts are supernatural!
Conjecture? What conjecture? Weigh a CD loaded with information and a blank CD. If information were matter then one CD should weigh more than the other. |

| Quote | | To read this information, the CD player passes a laser beam over the track. When the laser passes over a flat area in the track, the beam is reflected directly to an optical sensor on the laser assembly. The CD player interprets this as a 1. When the beam passes over a bump, the light is bounced away from the optical sensor. The CD player recognizes this as a 0. |
A blank CD player has the same number of bits a "full" one.. its the configuration of bits that counts.
Now if the creation of elevated areas causes any of the substrate to be removed ... it will actually weigh less... |
Heh. Does etching have less information than printing: discuss. Funny though; one strand of dsDNA tends to weigh more than the other, due to the counts of purines and pyrimidines along each strand being unlikely to match exactly, which they would have to for complementary strands to weigh the same. And they have different 'information' on 'em! Makes you think ... |
You bet. Dumber than a bag of rocks. Uglier than a sack of nails. On the weight of evidence Shannon's entropy according to Joe has mass. When the other shoe falls he'll be able to find the relationship between gravity and onanism.
