The Racetrack (or Dichotomy)

One can never reach the end of a racecourse, for in order to do so one would first have to reach the halfway mark, then the halfway mark of the remaining half, then the halfway mark of the final fourth, then of the final eighth, and so on ad infinitum. Since this series of fractions is infinite, one can never hope to get through the entire length of the track (at least not in a finite time).





ofcourse we know this isn't true but mathmaticaly it makes sence, its fun to think about, and try and rationalize

Ok i'm a little stoned here too, so what you are saying is if we race through one bag of weed there is always going to be an indefinite supply? I mean yea, first the 1/4th goes, then the 1/8th....wow....i don't get it...hahah:joint:

haha!!! that is if you always smoke half your stash!!!! DAmn I need to start doing that :P
1/2 1/4 1/16 1/32 1/64th and so on, but I I think a single calyx is more than 1/64th of an ounce, now if we were talking a ton, than we would be in buisness!
