I'm interested too.  Hope some one out there answers you.
Not being a physcist or cosmologist I often forget the official names for
some theories, but there is one that depends on the universe constantly
splitting off in different directions.  Basically every possible event
occurs, we're just not aware of anything or can be aware of anything beyond
our own.  Would this have any effect on 'basement universes'?
Wondering too, if the mass of the universe is not sufficent to cause a big
crunch, then is heat death a true death of intellect.  What I mean is the
basic transhumanist concept of evolving from biological dependence.  If this
leads to a energitic particle based intellect will entropy be
insurmountable? One last issue on basement universes.  What is the
consequences if this universes is a basement of another universe.
