And - the friends of nothing (wonder who this might be?) may be divided into two distinct though not exclusive classes: the know-nothings, who claim a phenomenological acquaintance with nothing in particular, and the fear-nothings, who, believing, with Macbeth, that "nothing is but what is not," are thereby launched into dialectical encounter with nullity in general.
Nothing, in short, is given only in relation to what is, and even the idea of nothing requires a thinker to sustain it. And I'd like to add that these people
while 5% indicated that they want the wardrobes in Desperate Housewives and for all football cheerleaders to consist of nothing

Re: Nothing, you say?

"This Court finds no reasonable precedent for the deeply-held beliefs of most Americans," according to the 13-page ruling. "Therefore, the survey results will forthwith demonstrate that 71 percent of Americans favor posts about nothing, and only 24 percent oppose the concept. That said, this Court rules in favor of nothing."
Me thinks the war between Doc and Blue is fixin to commence
Now back to NOTHING and the space in between

by "nothing", do you mean useless information?
If so, then this topic is almost but not quite, entirely unlike something.

All information is useful in at least one form or another all depending on the person searching for a clue to some information which may or may not contain NOTHING within the original piece of information...
