If you're in to math at all, there's a good chance you've encountered the idea that infinity can come in different sizes. And while that's cool, and keeps pure mathematicians off the streets, is there any practical use for it? Can you solve any problems with it? And does it matter at all to broader mathematics? To find out, we'll have to find a path thru an infinitely dense minefield.
