Ben, likewise with the term woo-hoo, I would donate it to the public domain,
but I was not the originator.  It was said best by Homer Simpson, and first
by Tigger.

Your comment is a good one to offer anyone puzzled by the creationists
saying that life violates the second law of thermodynamics by decreasing
entropy.  It really doesn't.  The earth-sun system is still increasing
overall entropy, even while a group of S-Brains are forming.
