I'm really not sure. I've heard arguments both ways, but if 1+ 0.999...999 = 2, we could end up with a negative number if we add up all those positives. We could expect no less out of globularist math.



would you please either define or give a reference to the differences between: Flatularist Math and Globularist Math?

Going right back to here! What on earth has this rubbish got to do with Globe vs. Flat?Why is there any special Globularist Math and for us poor non-mathematical geniusesOf course, the old monks supposedly wiled away the time debating such things as, "How many angels could dance on the head of a pin?".Many of your issues seem less relevant to the Flatularist vs Globularist questions than even that!All you seem to be trying to prove is "what a clever young man your must be". OK I'l grant you that, now get onto something that matters.How does the question of how smart(-alackey) Flatularists might be or even how dumb Globularist's might be relate to the shape of the earth?The topic is "Help me understand", yet all you ever do is try to confuse!
