Actually, 0*infinity is an indeterminate: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Indeterminate.html

How can it be an indeterminate? There's no infinity to indetermine with, since anything*0=0.

Nice... two of my loves in one sentence, math and linguistics :D. First of all, I don't think I've ever seen "indetermine" as a verb before, and I'm not even quite sure what would be meant by it. Secondly, any finite number times 0 is 0. Infinity does weird things like that.

And yes, Gum, I am fully aware of my dorkness, and I'm glad you approve. Though I'm not sure what's funny about misdefining a constant...

I CAN INDETERMINE ANYTHING I DAMN WELL WANT, BITCH!

Also, 0>infinity.

Well this is a nice thread I think. However, I think that many newbies don't even come to this section of the forum, unless they have technical problems or something. I know that the first time I came here was not long before I had 1000 posts. I think most newbs go directly into Gendisc or Unmod once they sign up there accounts.

Anyways, I'll just throw my two cents in about Unmod. It really isn't a bad place as long as you think before you post. Learn to recognize and deal with sarcasm and realize that, regardless of what someone says, the posters will rarely make personal attacks against you. Come in with a normal sense of humor... and leave with a warped sense of humor.
