Eh. Math is hard.
Hey, we’re running out of numbers. You sure we’re not going to get to “1” and still have two days left?
And it’s Laroo, not Larru.
I thought it was Lurueghe.
The accent is on the 3.
In two days it will be.
Has he taken his last vacation as prez? I’m not so sure. Could still squeeze in a three day, somewhere.
Thanks Laz...coming from you that means the world to me.
Not sure how one could embed this somewhere on FR but this link takes you to a countdown timer.

We are not running out of numbers. We have an infinite supply of integers, and an even greater infinite number of real numbers, as Georg Cantor elegantly proved in 1874. Plus another infinite number of complex numbers.
All times are expressed in Pacific Standard Time, of course, and will be displayed prominently on our handsome Obtanium clock at the Observation Deck of the Visitor Center here at the Lab, at the western edge of New Melania. We like to keep the maximum distance away from Warshington DC as possible, while staying in the continental US.
“Forseeable future” is an oxymoron.
No, it’s not. It’s a common figure of speech.
WOOF!
On Monday, November 7, 2016 there was widespread disagreement on what the hours-away "foreseeable future" would bring (Trump's election win), although many well-informed folks had been analyzing & debating it for 18 months.
On Friday, November 22, 1963 at noon Dallas time, JFK was enjoying the ride in his motorcade's convertible. No one [other than the perps] knew what the "foreseeable future" (half an hour away) held.
A more precise term would be "anticipated future" or "likely future" or "projected future" based on sound statistical evidence. "Tomorrow will be similar to today, + or - 0.001%" is the general worldview, but rarely articulated that way. I like "likely."
We will drill our own numbers from now on! Good old “10-4, good buddy, what’s your 20?” American numbers, not those Arabic numbers or unos-dos-equis Mexican numbers.
Who says I’m not rational?
