 The accepted energy is a negative value in some of the graphings, and more then a little negative. I suppose it can happen (if there's an exothermic reaction, rather then an endothermic reaction. And truth be told, these reactions are coupled with each other in our bodies as ATP [adanine tri-phosphate] for instance is broken down into ADP to couple certain metabolic activities). As such, this could be exactly the sorta thing going on; though I thought I would mention this rather different behaviour from what I've seen in the past, nonetheless...     |

 The more negative the better :)  They are looking for the 'lowest energy' and the code they use to determine energy isn't limited by zero. -Ethan |
