 RM>> Hey, I like that one.
 WE> Negative integer example is notated by w* (actually small

 RM> Okay, now that you put it THAT way.  
Try this one:  w* + w + w* + w.  Time analogy would be time without 
beginning, time beyond time, time without end.
... In no time at all time began for its time had come.
