beginning of universe - 06-28-2006, 02:52 AM

Ok, I have two questions here involving entropy and the beginning and end of the universe -

1) According to inflationary theory, the universe started off with the lowest entropy. Does this mean that whatever the universe came from had the lowest entropy?

2) Is it possible (aside from a random fluctuation) for something to jump from maximum entropy to lowest entropy? As if something reaches such a high disorder that it becomes perfectly ordered?
