Friday problem...

[Fyebot]

i have 2 sticks. One is 20m and one is 10m. One is bigger than the other right? So theres more space right? Wheres the problem? Is one infinity bigger than the other?
this is why i hate maths and leave it well alone....

lol.. you can get different size infinities, if you're interested look up the set of countable numbers. But.. I don't think you really want me to go into it

If you're only going to quantifiable space, rather than stuff made up by mathematicians to make their lives easier, then between points there is space. It is the space at atomic level between nucleus and electron

Which is certaibly quantifiable - how else would scientists be able to predict electron orbital radii?

Er, that's what I was saying...

A man who wants to goto the 25th floor of a building is frustrated that the lift stops on every floor along the way; No one gets in or out of the lift. Why?

Well when I first read this the obvious answer seemed to be 'Because nobody wanted to'. Having read the other replies I guess I was barking up the wrong tree.
