					<description><![CDATA[Phill O:

&quot;The law that entropy always increases, holds, I think, the supreme position among the laws of Nature. If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the Universe is in disagreement with Maxwell&#039;s equations — then so much the worse for Maxwell&#039;s equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation — well, these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the second law of thermodynamics I can give you no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation.&quot;

					<description><![CDATA[Nick P:
Thanks, it&#039;s been a long time since I had any finance-classes!

tangent-- what&#039;s the equation tying together energy, frequency &#038; wavelength? (if I&#039;m asking that anywhere nearly correctly.) 
You can substitute that into the &quot;e&quot;  of e=mc(squared). (That&#039;s about as &#039;deep&#039; with the Maths that I can handle! Always impressed with people that can handle this sort of symbolic logic, Physics or Finance---&quot;fascinating.&quot;)]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Very interesting list! 
--pleased to know I am somewhat familiar with all of them, except the Shannon&#039;s Information Theory equation.

Referencing the Black–Scholes pricing equation--- tying it to modern day financial &quot;derivatives&quot; is technically correct, but it is more accurately &quot;famous&quot; for determining the value of Options, which decay in price to zero, as they approach their exercise date.
[&quot;option,&quot; the right but not the obligation, to purchase or sell something at a future date]
--Also credited with being a fundamental concept underlying  what morphed into &quot;portfolio insurance.&quot;  [key aspect of which is there has to be sufficient numbers of people on the opposite end of any trade, or the &quot;insurance&quot; fails during high &#038; sustained volatility.]]]></description>
