So it seems to me that a null value does not define the non-existence of a value, but is itself actually a value. And this as far as I am concerned is quite valid.Ok, but it still doesn't change the fact that null is not a value :) The fact we couldn't make the implementation perfect doesn't change that in any way. I mentioned ways to implement the desired behavior, others also mentioned other ways - but there's no way I'd support adding functionality that will encourage inconsistency in the language. Zeev
