I do not wish to speak for betty boop, but I did not take her post to be delineated only to gasses, but rather to put the subject in historical context.
If you refer to my original reply to question #2 at post 1545 (especially the linked information) - you'll see that I assert the thermodynamic tab is paid in living systems by the dissipation of energy into local surroundings when information [Shannon] is accomplished, i.e. the reduction of uncertainty of a receiver or molecular machine in going from a before state to an after state. Information is not the message but the action, the successful communication. The DNA is as good dead as alive.
Either learn some physics, the both of you, or lay off the airy pronouncements.
