    "abstract": "Following the selection metaphor as introduced by Lee Smolin in his 1997 book\nwith respect to a possible model of the reproduction of Universes, this model\nis being reconstructed utilizing the strict analogical form of the metaphor\nchosen. It is asked then for the genotypal level associated with the primarily\nphenotypal model, and it is asked in particular where the information\nprocessing mechanism of that cosmological sort of selection could actually be\nfound. It is argued that massive black holes in the centres of galaxies may\nplay this important role. Some consequences on black holes in general are\ndiscussed then pointing to the necessity to actually revisit the concepts of\nvirtual and actual black holes also.",
