Terry, this shows such a level of physical level ignorance that I
can't see where to start on it.

It's clear you don't have a background in thermodynamics.

How much science or engineering background do you have?

I ask not to put you down, but so I can suggest what level to start
repair education.

Thanks for your kind suggestion. I have no engineering background but 
I'm eager to learn. My only background is on applied science, 
psychology. Sorry, the little I know about thermodynamics is the 
conservation of energy. I'm still trying to understand the second law 
of thermodynamics. There are so many technical terms to sort out in the 
3rd, 4th and 5th law of thermodynamics that are too challenging to me.

My son in college is taking courses on electrical engineering and can 
mentor me only when he is not busy. So I get the latest info about 
science, cosmology and other related subjects from the science website 
and documentaries on cable.

In the past, I read books  by Lee Smolin, Stephen Hawkings and Richard 
Dawkins as well as Marvin Minsky and Julian Barbour and many others 
whose name escapes me at the moment but I'd try to read more about 
thermodynamics when I get time to read.

Why do I like to explore the fabric of reality? Just curious, I guess.
