   I have no doubt Shannon is correct in what he is describing, but to call it an   
   "information theory" is a crazy thing, imo. It's just psychologically   
   off-kilter.   
   Ha Ha. But any psychologist knows that some types crave "certain certainties."   
   You know, it's a classic ego neurosis.

   Oddly, many theoretical physicists think that the whole society is enmeshed in   
   a   
   grand illusion of materialism originally foisted by Newton. Modern physics   
   says the entire universe is connected in ways that is not apparent. HL Stapp   
   has good readable books on this subject.
