Hi Georges: The key division of my list of possible properties of objects is: [empty [read the "Nothing"]:all other properties [read my All[perhaps the Everything]]]. The Nothing is incomplete [there is a meaningful question it must answer but of course can not] and the All is complete [the list contains itself] and thus inconsistent. I do not see a number having either property so a number can not take the "place" of the Nothing and I do not see any number being able to describe the Nothing - the empty string is not a number [IMO]. As for the All - numbers are not internally inconsistent. Finally, if a number can not describe the Nothing then how can a number describe the All which is the Nothing's "is not" partner?
