Are you sure that continuing this crazy thread will lead anywhere?
Remove comp.lang.functional from this discussion, *please*.

Perhaps make the things "more interesting" by supposing that each coin
has an infinite number of faces? For the moment I see mainly the
confusion between countable and non-countable infinities, some bad
comprehension of the diagonality argument, etc.

People, what's happening? You have infinite time to spare?

On sci.physics somebody asked a marvelous question, so deeply scientific
that I have to share it with you: "if the light travelled at infinite
speed, and if I had an infinitely powerful telescope, would I be able to
see the back of my head?"

Fortunately the number of newsgroups is finite...
