	I suspect some day in the future various CAT and similar scanners
will be able to capture the entire brain (3D) in real-time, at which
point a statistical analysis of many people will be able to assign a 3D
Cartesian coordinate to the main activity associated with the concept of
0 (of course, we'll have to differentiate the concept of the glyph 0
from the concept of the quantity/number zero from the word zero...)
