[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Dream053 That does not explain anything. That is a re-assertion of the concept. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] drummer0702 Of course it is. I edited my post a moment after posting to reflect that such a question would be unanswerable, but I was trying to illustrate the unknowable idea of something of that context. I'm not refuting this concept. I'm simply asking whether this is an assumptive truth of humanity or a proven truth of mathematics. I guess a better question would be, is there a shadow of a doubt in your mind surrounding whether this concept is indisputable and will never be so?[/quote] I don't know about you, but it is very difficult for me to wrap my mind around Infinity of anything. I do know that if I have a pizza pie sliced into thirds and I eat the whole the thing. I would have eaten one pie which is equal to .999.... of a pie. [Edited on 12.12.2010 8:52 PM PST]
