Does Kunta Kinte fit into this somehow?

It does seem at least partly intuitive, in that thermodynamics and gravity both involve the tendency to seek equilibrium.

I hope a resurgence of Newtonian physics will herald a return to his general views on God the Creator.

Toss in a dash of quantum mechanics and a pinch of information theory, and the universe emerges, governed on a grand scale by pretty much the same principles underlying the elastic pull of a rubber band.
They forgot something .. SALT.
Ya gotta have salt or the soup tastes like poop.

Thank -you for discovering and posting this article. It must be one of the most clearly written articles about Gravity=Entropy yet written. I learned a lot from it, and I will follow up on some of that learning.
