        @neiltyson I may be wrong but I think @Shonkly was more worried about death of the universe by entropy (at least I am!)

        @neiltyson @shonkly cleaning causes more entropy. The metabolic breakdown in energy causes greater chaos in the universe. #USMLEStep1 boardQ

        @neiltyson @Shonkly How is it being reversed, if life is pretty chaotic and random? I'd say it's being "transmogrified."

        @neiltyson @Shonkly Reverse entropy? Just for a small organism for the cost of greatly reduced entropy (waste) in the environment.

        @neiltyson when the universe expands enough will probably "touch" another one and create a 3rd. Tall about turbulent relations!

        @neiltyson @Shonkly There're both energy aggregators & disaggregators in universe. Given an infinite universe there must be an energy loop.
