We calculate the Boltzmann H function for a repulsive Lennard-Jones fluid using Levesque and Verlet%27s reversible molecular dynamics algorithm. We find, as predicted by Jaynes, that for certain initial states, H increases as a function of time. We also discuss the Grad limit within such a simulation.
