I can help with this one, look it's simple. A zero and one are the two only possible choices in this critical but simple game, a zero being nothing by itself, meaningless, adrift, somewhat like your post. A one? Again, nothing alone but a tirvial yet quixotically intelectual counter. Proud, hopefull but still somewhat ignorant, if u could put the two together, what would do u get...boolean algebra! simple :?
