Re: The Language of Cells

dear Jerry:

Thanks a lot for your posting on the Language of Cells. Your comments were
really well articulated and indeed will help Josi and me in advancing these
compos.info views. Please give us a few extra days for maturing an answer.

May I come back to my awkward question a few days ago on the fundamental
molecular players of life? Perhaps you would agree with this classification
of sorts:

1) WATER, 2) PROTEINACEOUS STUFF, 3) NUCLEIC ACID STUFF, 4) PHOSPHOLIPIDS
and others.

After Szent Gyvrgyi so wonderful comments in the 604s and 704s, it seems
that no one talks any more about the properties and roles (including info
ones) of water. But in biology, water would be like a parallel of the
VACUUM and its generative properties in quantum physics... of course,
including the possibility of playing compositional games-languages of cells
within that (solvent) milieu.

are these views palatable to you?
