So what you're saying is there aren't *really* an infinite number of 
positive integers, because if you count "one, two, three, ..." you'll never 
get to all the integers.

Yeah, OK, that's not what infinite means.

I'll agree that it's impossible to have an infinite number of monkeys. But 
if you *did*, they'd hit shakespeare with 100% certainty.
