What does the following equal?**


\(\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^\infty\text{fear}__\text{i}\)

It's a variation on that movie about mathophobes.

I'm a little uncomforatble with this. Are you SURE fears can be put in one-to-one correspondence with the whole numbers? How do you know there isn't a fear11.5? Do fears have ANY field properties? They do seem to be related. Are they REALLY countable? This is my primary concern. :roll:
