Anyway, 0.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999etc is equal to 1.0, so 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999etc% is equal to 100%. Therefore, the rest equals zero.

My statement was indeed a 'mirror image' of what I intended it to be.

"Excluding 99.99999999999999% of the world's population leaves significantly less than one person" would have been a more appropriate phrasing.

Not really, since the one spiral posted is a decimal number.

Zero is significantly less than one, anyway.

He was, however, referring to MLII, who said etc, meaning recurring.

She also placed a percentage sign before the number, meaning that it made no sense whatsoever. Nothing said about such a statistic could truly make sense...

Funnily enough, I didn't notice my mistake until I was thinking about it while lying in bed last night, which was when I was hit by the blinding revelation. I had thought that Xenon was just being strange when I first read his post yesterday.
