Umm... I'm not following the logic of that paragraph. If you have an xyz coordinate grid, or even an xy coordinate plane (or just a x number line), then you can move in x and -x directions. Why do you say you can't? Where do you get the x dimension does not exist? It must exist if you have xyz coordinate grid... |

Re: Fyron\'s 5000th Post
well, the only way to eliminate +x movement is to eliminate the whole x dimension. a 'things can't exist without there oposite' kind of thing.

Re: Fyron\'s 5000th Post
What is the opposite of 2? Is it -2 or is it 1/2, or is it something else?
What is the opposite of 0? Is it 1, or is it infinity, or something else?

The opposite of Zero is Absolute Zero!
How's that for nonsense reduced to perfection?

Re: Fyron\'s 5000th Post
In a binary world, the opposite of Zero would be One.
*snaping fingers and singing* One, is the loneliest number...*snap*snap*
PS, Fyron thinks the Terminator movies were crappy. Who's up for a wedgie?  |

Re: Fyron\'s 5000th Post
If 'Yes' is the opposite of 'No' what is the opposite of Maybe? (Perhaps?)
If 'Closed' is the opposite of 'Open' what is the opposite of a Wink?
If 'Up' is the opposite of 'Down' what is the opposite of Middle?
If 'Inner' is the opposite of 'Outer' what is the opposite of Between?
If 'Heaven' is the opposite of 'Hell' what is the opposite of Earth?
...this has been pure nonsense brought to you one question at a time!
