From: Xeno Campanoli Date: 2005-10-21T14:42:26+09:00 Subject: Re: Another perspective is sorting is to bunch things into realms of like value. That being said, it wasn't hard once I realized the problem to just use 1 and 0. As far as which is bigger, I'd go with the concept that truth is like existence, and falsehood is like non-existence, and then to assume whole numbers as is done elsewhere in things like this and say that something is bigger than nothing. Thank you, by the way, for answering me in person. Best wishes.
