Sorry but could not resist. Black is yin, white is yang.
wiki 'It is impossible to talk about yin or yang without some reference to the opposite, since yin and yang are bound together as parts of a mutual whole (i.e. you cannot have the back of a hand without the front). A way to illustrate this idea is to postulate the notion of a race with only men or only women; this race would disappear in a single generation. Yet, men and women together create new generations<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_reproduction> that allow the race they mutually create (and mutually come from) to survive. The interaction of the two gives birth to things.[3]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yin_and_yang#cite_note-2> Yin and yang transform each other: like an undertow in the ocean, every advance is complemented by a retreat, and every rise transforms into a fall. Thus, a seed will sprout from the earth and grow upwards towards the sky – an intrinsically yang movement. Then, when it reaches its full potential height, it will fall.' I would say that black as down and white as up has at least a 5000 year history behind it. :-) -- Douglas E Knapp Creative Commons Film Group, Helping people make open source movies with open source software! http://douglas.bespin.org/CommonsFilmGroup/phpBB3/index.php Massage in Gelsenkirchen-Buer: http://douglas.bespin.org/tcm/ztab1.htm Please link to me and trade links with me!
