a by far more useful definition of infinity:
"The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy offers this definition of the word "Infinite."
Infinite: Bigger than the biggest thing ever and then some. Much bigger than in fact, really amazingly immense, a tottaly stunning size, real "wow, that's big" time. Infinity is just so big that by comparison, biggness itself looks rather titchy. Gigantic multiplied by colossal multiplied by staggeringly huge is the sort of concept we're trying to get across here."
-The Restaurant at the End of the Universe: chapter 19, pg 142
