So what you're saying, Warren, is that there IS no 12th of Never, and the 
estimable Donny Osmond's crooning assertions that that's "a long, long time" 
cannot be calculated after all.

I smell a conspiracy.

Hello all,

Thanks Dan and JFord, but Mr. Arnold has a point. I should have qualified 
the statement a bit; I think I was guilty of what the rhetoricians call 
"writer-based" and not "reader-based" awareness. He was correct to call me 
out, but hey, what can you expect from a BA in Philosophy from the UI?

I'll try again.

For those of sufficient age and educational level (chronological and/or 
otherwise) exhibiting the ability to interpret (not necessarily understand, 
for that may prove another question altogether, one including but not 
limited to epistemological or even cosmogonical dimensions not within the 
intention of this post) the concept of temporal duration and sequentiality 
within the currently accepted calendrical system of this country (including 
the modification of Daylight Savings Time) as derived and extrapolated from 
higher energy electrons within a Cesium atom expressed in a digital mode, 
there exists a high degree of probability according to longevity projections 
provided by life science research that said persons will never 
experientially encounter such a digital sequence again.

I am confident this disclaimer is woefully inadequate; further research 
funding may be required. In the meantime, I just thought all the fives were 
kinda neat.

But Mr. Arnold is right-- each moment is irreplaceably unique. Rather like 
people. Some are just a helluva lot more unique than others.

PS-- If them sixes ever pop up, I know a local pastor with my vote for 
President.
