From a given initial condition (the present) would not entropy (the increase in disorder) work backward in time as well as forward? How is it that we infer the past to have been more orderly than the present? Or do we? This question came to mind while entertaining the various popular scenarios about time travel, but it may have a more serious side. Why do we expect to find the same kind of a past that we remember? By that I mean recorded past as well, since we only have the record, not the original. I would presume that the past would be no more or less certain than the future we anticipate. The probability of an anticipated outcome would be similar to the probability of something actually having happened.
