Re: Bekenstein Bound (was: Crypto and new computing strategies)
You made the assertion in your rebuttal about area -v- volume in relation to black holes and event horizons about the entire universe not being containable in a volumn, if you accept this premice then you have to accept the premice that the universe is unbouded and hence not containable. This leads the bounds on the B-equation to be infinitly large number of possible states.
So what's wrong with that?

If you accept the universe as unbounded then you have to throw out the Big Bang and much of conventional physics, including large parts of what you are trying to prove.

I think you may be confusing the notion of "unbounded" with the notion of "finite". The Big Bang is perfectly consistant with the notion of a finite but unbounded universe. On a completely different note, physicists were planning to rename the event which created the universe after complaints from feminists that "Big Bang" was a sexist term. Does anyone know what new name was ultimately selected? -- Mike Duvos $ PGP 2.3a Public Key available $ mpd@netcom.com $ via Finger. $
