I want to see if anyone (perhaps someone in particular) will disagree with this statement on principal and maintain that they are correct even though he/she is wrong.

Wonder if that fits with any of the regulars on here.

The next step is to tell me I have actually got my question wrong and state theat your answer is correct to the question I should have asked.

I like that one. Will have to remember it if I ever get my sums wrong.

These 1's that you're willy nilly adding together. Are they real or hypothetical ?

Within the hypothetical situation they are real.

Everything i know is leading me to believe that ..yes....2 is the answer.

But this is 'General Discussion' a world within a world where the rule book is thrown out the window and rewritten.........daily.

Not if the wheels can't go faster than the conveyor.

It all depends on how one defines "1" and also how one defines the operation "+"

Nah 10 is 2 in binary. 11 is three.
