Can you just lay down exactly what mean in your apparently genius statement that went over our silly heads. "Life is decreasing entropy". I pointed a very direct counterexample that showed your definition needed refinement at the very least. So, one last chance to educate the commoners. What do you actually mean?

You were asked to make a distinction, the opportunity to provide some specificity to your fundamentally flawed You came back with snarkiness and

Yes, intimately familiar with England's work. My physics PhD was in statistical mechanics + biophysics.

Perhaps you don't know how thermo works? Your definition at the very least should define the environment to even be worth consideration. As is, I can either take it face value. In which case it's wrong. Or I can try to get a refined definition out of you, giving you the benefit of the doubt you know what you're talking about. Your attitude and answers don't give me confidence.

This is physics. Define things. We can't read minds.
