The physical world around us behaves as it does partly because it’s made of a huge number of tiny molecules, each behaving randomly. In the 1800’s, the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell imagined that seemingly non-random things would happen on a random basis in our real world. The fastest-moving molecules would occasionally all find themselves in one part of a water glass and begin to boil, while the slower ones, left to themselves for a bit, would freeze elsewhere in the glass. Or, at some point, all the molecules in a room would randomly be moving in just one direction, rather than every which way. The term associated with such weird hypothetical scenarios is “Maxwell’s demon.” Explain why you think we don’t see weird things like this happen, on a random basis in real life. Imagine this randomly weird world for a minute. Describe something that would make it very difficult (or at least interesting) to live in a “Maxwell’s demon” world.
