[FRIAM] square land math question

Ha! I can't pardon the tone because the authority is simply wrong. Besides, asserting such things with no justification is not merely a tone.

My *guess* is that a point divided an infinite number of times is like a power set and is a greater infinity than the point, itself. But I still haven't read a book I bought awhile ago: "Applied Nonstandard Analysis". It's a bit dense. 8^D I've read many of the English intros and such and a few of the proofs ... but Whew! It's almost exactly like Alexandrov's "Combinatorial Topology". I've given up and just cherry-pick sections that I only kindasorta understand by analogy at this point. At least with math papers I don't feel like such a failure when I give up on reading it ... another way papers are better than books!
