A hypothetical non-container.

In your own thread you call nothing a thing which is different than 0 things right.

How would 0 things be different than nothing?

0 things (and also nothing) is only a thing so far as its not being a thing Tongue (It's what we call those vague 'interruptions' of thingness between things... there is nothing within that 'interruption' but the 'interruption' certainly exists. Hence nothing both exists (as that 'interruption' between things) and doesn't) Smile

That make any sense? Tongue
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
