Aug 8, 2013 at 17:34 comment added user201929 @ryan I think that's part of the joke: the Guide, after all, "has many omissions and contains much that is apocryphal, or at least wildly inaccurate". I can understand the downvote, wherever it's from - a little surprised to have a positive balance TBH.
Aug 8, 2013 at 17:30 comment added Ryan Doesn't compute (though I like hitchhikers guide) as infinity can have subsets that are themselves infinite. In fact there is an example of that in the quote. Space is a infinite set and the planets are an infinite subset of that set. Which means that you could have an infinite subset of the planets that are populated. (ps I didn't do the -1, just wanted to point out the above).
