    But then otherwise we would have a year +0 and a year -0. You really want that on your conscience?

      Signed zero is hiding under your bed.

      I mean, it would be notated 0AD/BC(E) so it’s not like it would look goofy either. A separate year 0 that’s neither would also be an option, with the reference event within it.

        Ha! Then it’s trapped! I have one of those fancy beds with drawers in it.

        Wait… That means it’s going to pop out of my drawers…

        Anyone want a bed?
