    Yup, what you did is proper maths. What they did was use some physics concept where they pretend infinity is well-defined. That S_1 sum surely doesn't equal 1/2 and I don't think you can even say it converges to 1/2.

    The one I really don't get is madame tussauds. The wax models aren't even any good.

    Also, the tower of london. The injun tourists can't get enough of paying £50 to see a diamond the Brits stole from them 100 years ago.

    Yeah, you're right. That first bit of slight of hand is nonsense. At no point would the sum equal a half, you can't just arbitrarily take the average.

    1/2 sort of makes sense as at the sub (sub) atomic level something can be either on or off, or observed or not observed. But as you say, this is physics not maths. In terms of maths it is impossible for the result of the first calculation to be 1/2. What they are really saying is physicists have spent a lot of time dancing around in front of a black slab and are getting to the stage where they can smash animal bones on the ground and dimly associate the action with a practical solution. The real proof will come when they develop weapons using this theory.

    Going to have to do the whole tourist bit this year, doing the London thing with a LLR from Australia, might take him to Lords, give him a lecture on class and why the Aussies have none

    Two 48-hour strikes on the Tube will take place on 4 and 5 February, and 11 and 12 February, the RMT union has announced.



    You have a home game with United on the 12th, which I assume this will affect, if it goes ahead.

    Yep. 77% voted for it but there was only a 40% turn out so less than a 3rd of staff voted for it.
    You stay classy, RMT...

    No, just coughing up blood and feeling tired all the time.
