You're right, Clash. That was my bad reading. Good thing I review and write, and don't edit, eh?

"Nullity."

It's still hard to say with a mouthful of Cheetos.

LOL! It's a helluva lot better than "Nullility", plus it has the added advantage of being an actual English word, and even apropos!

nullity

Nul"li*ty, n.; pl. Nullities. [LL. nullitias, fr. L. nullus none: cf. F. nullit['e] . See Null.]

1. The quality or state of being null; nothingness; want of efficacy or force.

2. (Law) Nonexistence; as, a decree of nullity of marriage is a decree that no legal marriage exists.

3. That which is null.

Was it not absurd to say that the convention was supreme in the state, and yet a nullity ? --Macaulay.
