-
- That we have no conservation of mass.
- That we have no conservation of information.

-
- Mass is one form of energy ( oh well, that Einstein stuff )
- Lets just speak about the total energy, not separated as "massive" energy and
- "energetic" energy.
- Even the energy doesn't conserve. But we have the conservation of impulse.
- Energy is a part of it.
- It is a direct consequence of the formal invariance of the Lagrangian function
- under infinite translations.

- ANSWER TO THIS:
-
- What are the analogous parts with information ???
