Cof L49 Is Oedipa a 'sensitive"?

[Mark Kohut]

p. 86. Koteks on Maxwell's Demon:  "it's mental work"..."not work inthe thermodynamic sense"...

Just concentrate on which cylinder to raise the temperature in...........???

More circumstantial evidence that this mental sorting is a kind of focussing of attention? 

 But it would be, as written, some
kind of  literal telekenesis, some mind over matter...something?..///beyond our material world, something not REALLY possible???

Okay, so Maxwell's Demon CANNOT really violate the 2nd Law.......BUT is this another one of TRPs ways of saying there MIGHT
be stranger things in our world than in all your philosophy, Horatio????
