We respond to the comment by Crutchfield, Feldman and Shalizi and that by Binder and Perry, pointing out that there may be many maximum entropies, and therefore ``disorders'' and ``simple complexities''. Which ones are appropriate depend on the questions being addressed. ``Disorder'' is not restricted to be the ratio of a nonequilibrium entropy to the corresponding equilibrium entropy; therefore, ``simple complexity'' need not vanish for all equiibrium systems, nor must it be nonvanishing for a nonequilibrium system.
