Fiction/Non-Fiction... I always thought that was weird, ya know... basing the library system on Tale-Spinning versus Facts/Non-Facts.

Great riddle... I'll think about it. How about numbers outside Real Numbers...

"The real numbers can be extended with the addition of the imaginary number i, equal to (square root of -1). Numbers of the form x+ iy, where x and y are both real, are called complex numbers, which also form a field. Another extension which includes both the real numbers and the infinite ordinal numbers of Georg Cantor is the surreal numbers." http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RealNumber.html

Thats the only thing I can think of.

You mean like if I took three pieces of pie and 1 slightly smaller piece of pie... then I wouldn't have four exactl pieces of pie?

pieces of pie are indefinate in size as you cut them your self they have no fixed size so what is a whole piece of pie anyway?
any piece of pie?
