Actually, I'm a little confused about what you mean, Bjoern. If the total
energy in the universe is zero, it's pretty obvious that everything around
us has energy, so what's the negative component that cancels all that out.
Maybe I'm just being dense, but I'm not thinking of the answer at the
moment.
