I hardly understand anything either how is entropy defined in this article? What does an average over entropy production mean, since entropy is already defined by summing over the whole distribution of states. It seems that this article somehow associates an entropy to every microstate, or something like that.[[User:ThorinMuglindir|ThorinMuglindir]] 19:54, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
