Default Re: Infinitely many monkeys?

[ QUOTE ]
do you mean countably infinite, i.e. There is a one to one correspondance with the natural numbers. when I hear uncountably infinite the best example I can think of is the real numbers.

I think it would be just as tricky for me to feed aleph zero monkeys as aleph one, irrespective of your opinion of the continuum hypothesis. So I don’t think it matters, although admittedly a countable number monkeys might appear superficially more acceptable.
