> I appreciate your optimism. I tend to be optimistic about the future myself. But there is no law of the universe that everything will work out ok.

Isn't there some QM law that says that with infinitesimal probability anything can materialize at any point in space? Meaning that after everything has collapsed, you can (will!) still re-materialize somewhere in space. An infinite number of times!



I kind of wonder, in a half-assed amateurish way, if the underlying reality of our universe isn't just an extremely rare random fluctuation in a fluid-like medium at thermodynamic equilibrium.

You can definitely find cosmologist who believe this kind of thing, though it's rarely formalized.
