Actually the list has a negative # of elements in it. It is just hard to 
show this using repr. But each of these elements uses a negative amount of 
memory, so there is more RAM available for the rest of your program. You 
just have to avoid specifying a negative # too large in magnitude, or you 
will get a memory underflow.
