::
I'm thinking: 0
0 is "nothing"
Its not a roman numeral
 
and two 0's is 00 that is similar to [infty]

The title is fine - though I would prefer no "need help" clause myself, this is only a mild preference, not a strong rule.
 
Our only complaint is with titles that don't give you any hint what is inside. (When you first read them, this is no big deal. But when you are looking for something, it's a lot easier when you can tell from the title whether or not you should check inside.) Yours does as good job at this as most.
 
My only disagreement with BNC is that I would not have said "I'm thinking". I would be very surprised to hear that the intended answer was anything else!
