No, 0.999... is a number. It is equal to the limit of a sequence; that does not mean it IS a sequence. 2 is also the limit of a sequence, as are pi and 5 and e. Do you call all of them sequences? If no, then you're an idiot for thinking that 0.999... is a sequence. If yes, then you're an idiot as it's trivial to see that each of the numbers listed above is the limit of not only one sequence, but infinitely many sequences. You can not identify a real number with "a" sequence; only with an equivalence class of Cauchy sequences of rational numbers.

And now you're pretending to see something wrong with my post without actually mentioning what it is. gj.
