> if you knew the position and velocity of every particle in the universe

That's a big if, which quickly shot down my then early and naive absolute determinism view when Heisenberg uncertainty principle reared its head:

    σx•σp >= h/2π
IOW try to increase knowledge of speed and you lose as much knowledge of position.
