Oh okay. I just think "emergent properties" causes more confusion than clarity.. but you mean by it something like a spandrel?

The fuck that's got to do with arches? I'm thinking sigmoid.

It implies - and Krauss knows this - that there literally wasn't anything, which is not the case. Modern physics says that that was probably a quantum environment that fluctuated to create the universe. That is something, not nothing.

And you are misrepresenting (or misunderstanding) what is meant by "positive" and "negative" energy.

He means phenomenon like entropy. Entropy is not in the fundamental laws of physics. Entropy is completely a result of statistics, given the fact that there are untold numbers of ways to be more disordered tan to be ordered. In a very simple system (say the collision between two billiard balls), if I play a video of them colliding and you don't know beforehand if it's playing regularly or in reverse, you will not be able to tell if it's playing in reverse or not. This is an example of how the emergent property of entropy is the cause for our perception of time.

That's kinda sorta got it. We don't go into that dark night without a fight, but we will go into that dark night. Girly hugs the Id. Where you been big fella? ... someone gotta keep an eye on this big fella 'cause dude ain't stupid.

Thanks for having the ability to clarify, MFM, and for not coming across as a pretentious douche.

To try and do a little better, I'll offer this: consider a traffic jam. It is not found in any single car, but it is a property that emerges given a large enough amount of them and a sufficiently disordered state of them, hence a traffic jam could be said to be an emergent phenomenon.
