But surely you could name the first committee

next in 15 minutes, the next in 7.5 minutes,
and so on, each time taking half the previous
time to name the next committee. In that way
you'd be done in two hours.

I doubt many people believe that there is any
chance of that working, but most people would
probably agree that given all of eternity, an
unbounded list could be produced.
