The Information challenge



Interesting article by Richard Dawkins on DNA coding: ""And isn't it an
arresting thought? We are digital archives of the African Pliocene, even of
Devonian seas; walking repositories of wisdom out of the old days. You could
spend a lifetime reading in this ancient library and die unsated by the
wonder of it." For no extra charge you also get one of the clearer
explanations of Shannon's communication theory.
