The Beckenstein-Hawking formula for blackhole entropy indicates that blackholes have the highest possible entropy density in Nature. This suggests that, in addition to increasing entropy by inexorable expansion, the universe can also increase entropy by creating more blackholes. And, one way to accomplish this would be to have the gravitational 'constant' ('Big G') increase with time. This paper explores the dynamical relationship between these two entropic processes, how 'Big G' might vary with time, possible implications for the age of the universe, and where to look for evidence.
Comments: 14 Pages. The edited version adds a short section re possible implications for age of the universe.
