There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity. |

I would like to share with you
I've sorta become bored with CMI (creationist meaninful information AND THAT CMI); I will say that's a bizarre conflation of Shannon information (oh, yes, that's what info entropies are) and enzyme activity. I don't get why you have to manipulate the activity; if lower activity means less information, then why bother taking logarithms? There's no justification for that. There are stat mech ways of using concentrations to get energy entropies, if I remember right, although certainly not the way he does it, but that has nothing to do with information entropies. He also does the usual selective ignoring of natural selection (sigh). What a mess.
