Heh heh, pages upon pages of people going No... NO! Aaaaaagh you're all wrong shut up about the .999... thing. This is worse/more amusing than the time that the Monty Hall problem was AOTD.

I find it interesting that the text of the article actually predicts the belief-path the doubters take... when faced with simple and easily graspable proofs, they change their minds and state that obviously this means that the number system is broken.

I would agree that numbers aren't real in the same way oranges are. (We might disagree as to which are more real.)

You honestly think numbers are more real than oranges? Juicy, delicious oranges?
