poly: is information the bottom line?

Truly mindboggling article about the work of Roy Frieden on Fisher
information and the basic laws of physics (there's not much abt him on the
Web), at

http://www.newscientist.com/ns/19990130/iisthelaw.html

I'd like to see some informed discussion from the mathematics and
physicists on this topic.
