All,

Zero has a fascinating story, you can read a nice summary of this on Wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0_(number)

"Records show that the ancient Greeks seemed unsure about the status of zero as
a number: they asked themselves "How can nothing be something?", leading to
interesting philosophical and, by the Medieval period, religious arguments
about the nature and existence of zero and the vacuum. The paradoxes of Zeno of
Elea depend in large part on the uncertain interpretation of zero." (Wikipedia
Excerpt)
