poolcleanersays...I don't expect a lot of votes on this, but it was way too awesome not to add it to the Sift. If you have a couple hours, it's really worth the listen. Don't need to watch really. I like to listen to these scientific debates while I'm illustrating.

The universe is infinite (yes, I know that part is wrong), with infinite planets in it. Only a small portion might be inhabited, and any number divided by infinity is so close to zero as to be considered zero, therefore there are zero inhabited planets.

poolcleanersays...It's not just a single theory, but rather a discussion about the concept of nothing. So there are different types of nothing, as defined by varied types of thinkers -- scientists, philosophers, and mathematicians.
They also discuss nothing as defined by religious thought.
But it's not simply that the discussion is about the concepts of nothing, there is a lot of interesting science and philosophy.
