No, we realize that just as we need only one empty list (unlike Java, where
any list can have zero elements without losing its identity), we need only
one object that has:

        a unique identity, disjoint from all other objects
        a unique type, disjoint from all other types
        no information inside it

I should advise you to go quickly and remind him, lest he forget your faithful
service.  --Gandalf             John Cowan <address@hidden>
