Surely you meant to say "infinite universe"? Which itself is not considered a sure thing either nowadays.
Cheers!

Well, one man's infinity may be another man's one-eyed cat looking in seafood-store.
Do recall, however, that it was in the contemplation of the ordinality of infinities (Aleph) that both Cantor and Godel went insane.

You mean 2014 BC, right? That's about the time they landed and forced the Egyptians to build temples for them.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Hi All,
I mentioned in a post yesterday that my New Year was mucked up by my Dad being taken ill, Ambulance, Hospital, Acute Ward and the like. Well they released him (think they were worried by his attempts at escape via a tunnel dug with a tea spoon), he is of the generation were a severed limb is cause to see the GP, most cuts can dealt with via antiseptic & band aids. He does not like the Hospital ('why is she calling me Keith, I don't know her' and on). 2015 can keep getting better as far as I am concerned.
The fish are very grateful to see Bob (not our Green Friend) as he generally feeds them!

Good news, give the old duffer his medicine [with ice and slice] and don't forget to feed the fish.

Strange thing about people of that generation, they drank hot sweet tea to handle a crisis, most now drink spirits in preference (I think it was due to rationing?)
|

Anyway the most important thing is, that your dad is ok now. I hope it is like this.
