Okay, so is entropy supposed to increase at a rate that keeps up with time, or not?
Have you ever read about this stuff by Carl Sagan and Lynn Margulis' son, Dorion Sagan?
Do the Milankovitch cycles mean anything, or not?
Are we not overdue for an ice-age on a scope that puts the little ones into the deep freeze by comparison?
Aren't we little humans just as clueless as sqirrels who *innately* know to bury nuts for the long winter when we ignorantly act to stop this cumulative runaway event from taking place by warming the environment?
So the real message is that we've already done that, and it's time to back off.
Actually, a dead guy named James Kay is the real brain-child behind their observation. He and Eric Schneider were the first scientists that I found that had made the anthropic connection to the second law of thermodynamics, alhough they don't know much theoretical physics, not even Dorion, who is the most clueless of them all, in my opinion.

The message that nobody ever gets, that is.
