[edit] Base 2 vs natural Logarithms

Is there a reason logarithms base 2 are being used? Although there is application of relative entropy in information theory, these theorems were not proved in that context, and have applicability beyond them. It would also clean things up by removing some pesky subscripts and constants if natural logarithms were used. --Steve Kroon 14:31, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
