Imagine you are standing in the middle of a field. Surrounding you are an infinite number of children that are trying to attack you. Their goal is to kill you, and they have three hours to do it. Obviously, if these were 6 mo old infants you'd be able to fend them off for the 3 hours and survive, but if they're an infinite number of 10 year olds, they're taking you down. My question is at what age would you not be able to fend them off for the three hours, resulting in your death?
It depends on the distribution of children. One child per square mile would be much less difficult than, say, being crushed under 100 children per square inch.
Yeah, Suela, it's a weird thing to do. But once you're on the other side, bliss.
Sorry about the dog, Lee.
Good luck, Suela!
And I'm pretty sure it's msbelle's birthday today, so: HBD, msbelle!
Finally, wait. That question about the children was an actual question by an outside person?
Friendster decrees it, so it must be so. Happy Birthday, msbelle!
so: HBD, msbelle!
I read that as "HBO, msbelle!"
Anyway, Happy Birthday, msbelle! And HBO! (if you want it and don't have it.)
Also, if you're standing on an infinitely large plain, how great would its gravitational pull be? Would any fundamental laws of physics have to be altered to allow for the existence of an infinitely large plain?
We have a "suggestion book" where people write in silly questions (and, occasionally, actual suggestions.)
Here are others from this morning:
Do androids dream of electric sheep?
What is the prettiest color of underwear? [note: written in pink pen]
Would Achilles or Odysseus win in a fight between the two?
(Yes, pink, and Odysseus, assuming there's no rule about fair fighting.)
