Well, extropy seems to be at work in alife simulations like Tierra,
which run on deterministic computers where we can define *all* forces
which affect the simulated world. So it doesn't seem very reasonable
to say there is some "extropic field" (mediated by extropy bosons?)
that drives growth of complexity.
