8

Has the 8 some deeper meaning? In ao Big face first drawed this lying 8 ( the symbol for eternity) on the ground and then remember the video when abe first becomes a sryakull (Sorry but I can´t spell it) the birds in front of him build an 8.

it's the symbol of eternity, right, but I think the 8 make by the birds is a mudokon symbol like many others and not a number

The symbol for infinity isn't really an 8, it's just the easiest way to describe it. So, technically, there's only the bird thing.

Isn't the symbol for infinity an 8 sideways? I got this from a video game, but I think it's right...

hmmm interesting coincidence...

FWI the symbol of infinity, dude, is a simplistic representation of that Langton's Ant thing...y;'know when he had this peice of paper and he made it into a loop, twisted it once and *hey presto* it was a one-sided peice of paper!

...as you may be able to tell, i'm bored!
ahhh, i'm only kinda home-sice...purely 'cos of my PC and PSone! *thinks about RPing and chatting on MSN* *sighs*

the symbol for infinity is not an eight turned around its more streached and looped.
