What's the square root of infinity?


Boy let me tell you what:
I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player too.

Infinity squared is infinity, so it follows that the square root of infinity is also infinity. Probably.

Spanish for yes, although it should technically be sí.

It also, quite confusingly, means 'if', for example 'si usted desea' means 'if you wish'

Except that when it is used as "if", it has no accent. Kinda like este, éste, and esté are three completely different words.
