A recounting in broken English of my best understanding of the article `The Law of Maximum Entropy Production` from the website http://www.entropylaw.com In short: - In any situation, the universe will seek to maximize its capacity for redistributing energy and maximizing entropy (ie. path of least resistence). - Ordered structures are usually more efficient at maximizing entropy than unordered structures (take for instance intelligent terrestrial life, burning through millions of years worth of fossil deposits in mere decades). - Ordered structure does spontaneously appear wherever there is sufficient potential.
