I "know of" this proof, which is not the same thing as being able to utilize it. But it is a proof and you cannot posit a negative so it simply wouldn't apply if the values were less than zero.

Wrong Verden. The negatives do apply because as you will see in this equation...

1 - (-Fish) = 2 Fish

Damn. So much for that lol! Would you believe that I can usually get the right answer about half the time with an answer like that (if I don't actually know the answer)?

Well you just didn't assume that I wouldn't have that not so stupid equation that wasn't not right and when I continue to use these negatives in a fashion that doesn't not make your head spin you can safely assume (not unlike previously before) that I don't know anything about math above its practical uses in my not so everyday life.

okay here's the answer. epsilon can not be less than zero since be definition of the proof epsilon is an absolute value, which by definition is always positive.
if epsilon was less than zero then you are working in a surreal space, and the cauchy proof would have to be extended to cover it. which is left as an exercise for the class.
