MIT physicist might have figured out why life forms

The formula, based on established physics, indicates that when a group of atoms is driven by an external source of energy (like the sun or chemical fuel) and surrounded by a heat bath (like the ocean or atmosphere), it will often gradually restructure itself in order to dissipate increasingly more energy. This could mean that under certain conditions, matter inexorably acquires the key physical attribute associated with life.

You mean the answer isn't 42??

Sorry dude, but I just find it difficult to accept any of your mathematical theories when your signature block cites a mathematical error
