@someonenot2 No. The limit of a ratio, as the numerator and denominator both approach zero in this limit, is an indeterminate form. The expression (a-a)/(b-b) is undefined. This is why the limit is commonly called an indeterminate form.

When I was in basic training (US ARMY) in the south this song would be in my head as we rucked down those old dusty range roads. Four plus years later it was in my head as I hiked the Appalachian Trail home to Maine. The images in this video match many of my memories. Thank you.

Amazing little piece of Americana. BTW, my thesis advisor looks like John Denver... when meeting with him I would often have "Rocky Mountain High" in my head.

@PersonOfBook Even worse, the "proof" doesn't start with "a=b". It starts with "a=b^2", and so the second line is false. QEDMF.

Sure, but the "magic" is that 1 = 0.999... It's a wonderful demonstration to show non-mathematicians one of the wonders of mathematics. Now, how about showing that for any epsilon greater than zero there is some natural number 'n' such that the difference between 1 and 0.9999 to 'n' decimal plac...

@1kevin2fly There is no way that Pearl Jam is the best band in the world ever. I promise.

This man has no clue about what constitutes evidence. FAIL.

Fail. The inability of one party to answer a question does not allow another party to provide an unjustified solution. Please educate yourself.

30 seconds and I recognize the argument that will be made, an argument from ignorance. "We don't have evidence, so my claim is right." Please educate yourselves, you Atheist attackers. Ironically, I am truly agnostic, because I don't know either way. But I sure as heck won't put up with relig...

You know, the Youtube headline made me come here, but TYT makes me want to go.

Exhibition fight: Matt Damon vs. Daniel Craig. $100 on Daniel Craig.

Sweet, way to go kid! Know your math!

Like. A. Boss.

@MrMerlin87 NO, not "fair enough." Both the audience and AOL response FAILED miserably. We are a nation of sadly undereducated people. That should be known, at least by a plurality.

Quote: "Love your neighbor, as yourself." I refuse, Mr Huckabee, to love you as I love myself. You are a pervert, sir.

@civreal Do you mean Regis Philbin, sir?

My my, she actually gave a reasonable answer.

Oh I get it, I'm such a fool. You're a very enthusiastic troll. Back under the bridge, you! Back!

You don't understand logic, reason, or what evidence is. You are in over your head and sadly, don't seem to have the capacity to even consider this possibility.

@lithox01 Riddle me this: why are they known as the 'soft sciences'? There is a fundamental difference, to which Feynman speaks. Also, he emphatically states that he may be wrong.

Drool...

@eslake @eslake I am a math teacher at a community college and fall solidly in favor of teachers and unions, but we do need to exercise some quality control.

Recently, a peer was befuddled by a basic mathematical truth. I tried explaining it (from the definitions) and my peer was still bewilder...

"... government only acknowledges civil unions ..." That's it exactly, sir. Separation of church and state.

Hannity, you Can't Understand Normal Thinking.

O'reilly clearly shows he has no understanding of morality.

Guh blagh ... SPLAT

Brian's look is priceless... Mastercard or some bullcookie... (Damn you censors!)

But all the girls have real legs...

Four people are Protestant wankers :P

great scenes that were butchered by bad editing.

@WavemasterElkin It is a sacred responsibility.
