How to Name It - 15:18 CST, 12/19/18 (Sniper)
Duncan has been wondering if it's theoretically possible to have more than infinity-- or to put it another way, to discuss "infinity" as a quantifiable thing, which you could manipulate as if it were just a number, or set.

To help with talking about the notion, he came up with the following nomenclature:

  • ∞ × 10: Aen (rhymes with "aim")
  • 2: Den
  • ∞ × Den: Zen
  • ∞ × Zen: Fen
  • ∞ × Fen: Fen Infinity
  • ∞ × Fen Infinity: Zzen (pronounced "zeh-zen")

He intuitively seems to realize that naming things is helpful when dealing with the abstract-- his favorite example is the whole "Googol"-"Googolplex"-"Googolplexian" thing.
