ALT+255?

Hold down ALT and type 255 on your keypad. You will then know everything AND nothing.

It does nothing, but once you realise that you know it does something. ;)

But unlike ALT+255, those things do something. ALT+255 literally does nothing, but once you realise that you then also know that it is the answer and the question.

to know that you know nothing.

Sgt, you must understand that no-one can be told what ALT+255 is, they have to discover it themselves. You can only be shown the door, but you must walk through it.
