DB = me, RM = Raul Miller

Given my definition,  

DB>  I define "have" to mean "the bit pattern for an IEEE floating point
DB>  (FP) negative zero exists in an array of FP in J".  

and your statements:

RM>  The bit pattern which we currently associate with
RM>  "negative zero" would remain as a potential bit pattern.

DB>  This is an endorsement of my position.

RM>  Sure, if (for example) you define 64{.1 as meaning "floating zero".

then either you contradict yourself or one of your statements invalidates the 
premises of the discussion.
