You believe in the magical appearance of infinitely > many unit fractions. That breaks logic and mathematics. Nope, the fact that you admit that you logic breaks the definition of the Natural Numbers says you admit your logic can't be used with them. It may be that you logic just can't handle a mathematics are big and powerful as the full definition of the Natural Numbers, but only arbirary but finite subsets of them. You just need to understand your limitations. > > Regards, WM > > >
