Have a look at how your computer works. There are a series of 0,1 ,
or (+1) if you like. There are NO (-1)s, because there are NO minus
ones in nature. For those who "believe" that "imaginary" has the same
kudos as "natural" and "real", arguing against them is futile. It is
akin to arguing against the existence of ghosts, to somebody who has
"seen" one!!!!!
