What an interesting topic, is it nothing still once it is identified as such, as nothing is nothing, but to name the nothing it must be something, and something is only something because of the contrast between nothing and something. Therefore nothing is something, and something must be nothing, and if nothing is 0 and something is 1 then 0=1, life is something and death is nothing, then life = death. "I'd like to talk about just a couple of numbers that have really been bothering me lately, and they are zero and one. Now first, let's take a look at zero. Now nobody wants to be a zero. To be a zero means to be nothing, a nobody, a has-been, a ziltch. "On the other hand, just about everybody wants to be number one. To be number one means to be a winner, top of the heap, the acme. And there seems to be a strange kind of national obsession with this particular number. "Now, in my opinion, the problem with these numbers is that they are just too close--leaves very little room for everybody else." Roshi Laurie Anderson Lament not the masses, that lose as if it were an acquired skill. Do not fret the hapless, that ramble about on a road of thrills Do not mourn the dead, lifting away from shattered shells. Lift your weary head, from the weak your eyes do dwell For this Number one, you see, came from someone like you or me. hehe, I'm a poet and did not know it.
