Almost. Your example was a good one though. It seems that all the
information you can have is not enough if you do not have the proper
media to store it.

It seems that the type of information obtained by physics, such as
states of motion, is good only for a "mental" or virtual reproduction
of physical reality. hands on rerpoduction required much more
information than that, which physics does not know what it is.
