      Vsauce Yet what is the sum of the information I contain? Surely I have more information than a cloud of helium with nearly the same mass, since that information can be reduced or approximated with models of gases, but somewhat less information than an integrated circuit or super-efficient hard-drive with nearly my mass.
      The information I contain may include memories, DNA, proteins . . . it's hard to boil it down.
      In response to your statement, what percentage of the information in the available universe am I?

Would they run away screaming at such gory atrocities and then return to their home to share the depravity of us Earthlings? Like how we kill and eat each other for energy with which to operate our physical form as well as our cognitive functions?
