The most scientifically accurate epitaph in cemetery history! Instead of the usual "Rest in Peace," this physicist went with the thermodynamically precise "My atoms have gained entropy." It's basically saying "I've died" but in the language of the Second Law of Thermodynamics. When we die, our organized biological systems break down, and our atoms scatter into more disordered states—literally increasing entropy. Howard clearly wanted his final message to follow the fundamental laws of physics even in death. The universe tends toward disorder, and so did Howard!
