Makes sense. But I think there's a difference between nothingness and
nothing. Nothingness to me sounds like yu can see a vast expanse of empty
space with nothing in it. But you can know that's an empty space with
nothing because you have something to relate it to. Where you're standing.
but nothing... is just that. I don't see a void. I don't see black. I see
nothing. Or rather, I don't know if I see black or not... because my brain
has no way of telling me if it's black or not.

Hi,
Personally I would say that even if you knew what blackness was, you'd
still be seeing nothingness if you were total. For example I can see a bit
out of my left eye, and know the color black, along with other colors. My
right eye, however, has no perception at all. It's like I don't even have
an eye there. If I close my left eye I see blackness, but no matter what
happens my right eye sees nothing at all.
Hth,
-Michael.
