What occurs to me, not being a physicist, is to ask: if there is only
information and no matter, then what is the carrier?
Or are we talking about the kind of thing exemplified by an expert system
where the data are sets of relationships and there is no separable database
as such except in terms of the peripheral arrangements of data entry and
information retrieval? i,e, nothing wasted, nothing there just to carry
something else?
