While reading this I envisioned entropy as water, pouring into dissipative systems, which use the energy, convert it into extropy, harnessing it to build themselves up. It's as if order orders itself in clusters, sucking the unorder out of the surrounding area. It is similar to the way galaxies cluster, leaving vast spaces of nothing(?) inbetween them. Not only do we live on a literal gravity well (the earth), we are (metaphorical) gravity wells of a sort, attracting and absorbing the energy of entropy. I shall shut up now. Caffeine and lack of sleep has blown a hole in my brain and entropy is seeping into my thought processes.
