Life in the Cosmos



I have no training in advanced physics, and I want to make sure that I
understand a couple of the concepts that I read in Smolin (1997) _The_
_Life_ _of_ _the_ _Cosmos_. Smolin proposes Cosmological Natural
Selection (CNS), where evidently a self-organizing mechanism makes a
black hole with entropy per baryon = 10^20 to generate a universe with
entropy per baryon = 10^<8. And as far as I can guess, he proposes an
origin of past-eternal oscillation where evidently there never was an
open universe that failed to generate a black hole until there were
multiple universes that started to generate multiple black holes. Does
this sound like a correct interpretation of CNS?
