This episode is one of those rambling conversations that is
difficult, in retrospect, to give a concise title. We do talk about
entropy and the arrow of time, but we also discuss gravity and
astrophysics, orbital mechanics, lagrange points and trojan points,
geomagnetic anomalies and an "activated" asteroid in a Jovian
orbit, the Dead Sea Scrolls and DNA testing, and the Rosetta Stone
and a brief history of the attempts to translate ancient Egyptian
hieroglyphics.
We also read a couple of really great emails, and open three 1up
boxes, which takes a long time, and is part of why this show is
longer than usual. We probably will have to restrict ourselves to
one box per episode in the future.
