    Thanks for the link to the video. The timing is quite handy. DS7 is struggling with finding an infinity which has numeric properties (adding, subtracting, etc.) for a proof he wants to solve. We have not delved into the different types of infinity. YET.

    Basically, subtraction (and division etc) can't work for infinite cardinals.

    update: we went through the whole book....DS liked enjoyed it, but it really doesn't seem worth the price to buy them new. We will continue to hunt for more library versions, because they are clearly fun, but for now, that's where we will stay (unless DS starts seriously bugging us, I guess....)
