"Actually, a key application of Cantor's work is that one can reasonably
extend the intuitive notion of "counting" to cover collections that are
too big to actually assign numerical sizes to."

A mathematician explains the intuitive notion of the missing box that
contains the box numbers that don't contain their own box number,
and the BIG Boxes in the even BIGGER room of boxes.

IT'S SO BIG! ~ Barb Knox
