*Two people are standing around talking* 1: According to information theory, the number of ways to arrange matter in a finate sphere of space is finite! This has amazing implications! 1: Consider the set of non-overlapping spheres of space that are earth-sized, one of which is our earth. If space is infinite, then eventually we will find another space-sphere with the exact same matter arrangement as earth! 1: If this is true, then there must be another earth out there! It's probably the most powerful application of the pigeonhole-principle ever!! Now how can you say that math isn't fun?? 2: Math isn't fun. Nintendo is fun. 1: Yeah. 'tendo's pretty fun
Sorry, I won't cheat again. Last time, I promise.
