<< The biologist Stephen Jay Gould famously proposed that if we could
"rewind
the tape" of evolution and play it again, chance would give rise to a world
that was completely different from the one we live in now. But the concept
that chance reigns supreme may ring less true when it comes to complex
behaviours.

IF my hypothesis is correct, and
life is that which can best survive a non-random heat cycle, while using the
forced energy with novel variations,

THEN rewinding the tape will only re start the same chemical system with the
same convergent results on all levels.
