Nature's Laws

Then I've got a way for you to become a billionaire!  Well, maybe not you, but one of your great, great, grand kids.  Here is what you do:  You just buy a few million silicon wafers that haven't been processed (etched) and you plant them in the ground, making your very own "silicon chip farm."  As soon as the undirected forces of nature start acting on the silicon chips, it's only a matter of time until at least some of them begin to learn how to reproduce themselves.  From that point, the ones that have spontaneously developed the ability to reproduce themselves, you can just let evolution work its magic on these reproducing chips, and eventually you're certain to get some of the most valuable computer chips in the world!  It's worth a try, isn't it?

Wow.
If you think silicon can and will do that, you need to take Chemistry 101.
I'm not saying retake because I have to assume you didn't take it in the first place or else you wouldn't have made that statement.

Actually, I have to take that back. Chemistry 101 implies college level classes. I, however, learned that in high school, so.....
