Imaginary Numbers

Are complex numbers any more imaginary than real numbers? What makes pi more real than i?

My statement that "it's certainly true that 0.111... = 1/9" does not mean that fact is exempt from needing to be proved. Your proof starts with an assumption - a provable assumption, but an assumption nonetheless - which the "1 != 0.999..." fags obviously do not agree with.

Your proof is equivalent to proving Pi is irrational by saying "Pi/2 is irrational, and 2*x where x is irrational is trivially irrational, so Pi is irrational." It's vacuous, because someone questioning the irrationality of Pi would obviously question the irrationality of Pi/2 as well.

Lastly, with respect to "It's true!  DEAL WITH IT!  Accept it, before it destroys you!" - I never said it wasn't true, you mouth breathing inbred middle school drop out.
