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.

Real math is the correct & insightful manipulation of symbols, in accordance with well-defined rules. Some real math is difficult. We are merely counting here. It's not even four-function arithmetic (six if you include unary minus & exponentiation).

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.
