It's not exactly equal to 1, BUT it's so close, that you can just calculate things as IF it were, and it won't throw anything off, because it's THAT close.

c=0.999.....
10c=9.999
10c-c=9.999-0.999
9c=9
c=1

also:

1/3 = 0.333 repeating

1/3 x 3 = 3/3 = 1

as 0.3333 x 3 = 0.9999

"repeating" doesn't = 1 unless you are willing to accept a trump.

.99999...% gold isn't all gold, althought it is pure gold.

Just like the world, if the world is filled up to .99999...% stupid people, no matter how many people or how big the world grows, there will always be me.

MickG = .00000... but somewhere down the line to infinaty is 1

No, we are getting along well. A tit exposed to feeding, is exposed by choice. If you are feeling the bite of teeth on a tit, then it's best to put it away. That's what happened.

I however am just about selling everything right now. Not because I need money. I've switched into this whole zen type thing. I'm only now keeping those things I regularly use "need". This all came about when I had dinner over my brother's home Turkey day last. My sister-in-law gave me a couple of pictures of Charley (my dog) that they had. The pictures were of my dog as a young dog with his head sticking out of boxes in the back of a small pick-up truck. It was from one of the times my real brother helped me move. However I had moved so many times, having to get rid of just about everything, and in that having loss, that triggered this new movement.

This is about the time my wife and mother in law came out of a store eating a nature made cake type thing. We had agreed, my wife and I, that there was to be no eating in this car, new volvo, so when my wife and her mother reached the car without having finshed their little treats, as they reached for the door handle, I hit the power locks button and told them to finish their little cakes first. That was the first and last time that happened wink

I'm well loved.

After people get use to me, to know me, they can't help but love me.

I'm a really nice guy when you get to know me.

None of you really know me.
