Infinite-precision arithmetic

[Stephen Barncard]

but... EVERY platform has limits...eventually - memory, speed. How 
can any tool be 'infinite'?? Better, bigger, faster, perhaps, but ... 
infinite? Aren't you instead trying to craft tools that are... 
scaleable?

We're getting into theoretical physics, cosmology here.... whoa...
