Well, you can find nothing in something, because an empty set is a subset of a set that has something in it. (i.e., the set {} is a subset of the set {"A", B", "C"}.) As for being blank being something, that depends on whether the blank is a zero-size blank or a finite-size blank. A zero-size blank is nothing but a finite-size blank is something. For example, the string "" is nothing but " " is something.
