Do Points
Have Area? Do Points Have Area? Subject: RE: Reply to "Do Points Have Area" Author: John Conway <conway@math.Princeton.EDU> Date: Mon, 2 Feb 1998 14:28:51 -0500 (EST) I remark that this question no longer has any significance. Jesse has distinguished between the old "points", that don't have area, and his new "Points", which are defined to be circles of some fixed area. Of course with definition "Points" do have area, but - may I say it - what's the point? If the question had been (as it now translates) "Do circles have area?", the discussion would have been simpler and shorter(I hope!).
