Hi Steve_Zissou, Re: How I say that everything is just forever dissipating,
as it's an intrinsic property of mass-energy,
where how more gravitation is just less entropy,
i.e. the object is relatively less dissipated.

  Applying the 2nd Law that broadly defies any sense of understanding. >>
  
Sure, you can't empirically consider an open system,
but you can say that gravitation and entropy are related,
as a general principle... theoretical physics is like that.
e.g. The speed of light is the same for all local frames of reference.
