Well, all real sets are uncountable infinite. Whether that's a "demonstration", I don't know.

Countability doesn't stop at "uncountably infinite," so saying R and R^2 are uncountably infinite is not sufficient. For example, R^ω (infinite coordinates) is also uncountably infinite, but has a higher cardinality than R

In general, since the power set of A always has a higher cardinality than A itself, there is an infinite number of uncountable cardinals.

Cashews are actually apple seeds, not nuts.

I'm aware of all of this, but you're not going to convince anyone who hasn't done a bit of general relativity or pure math of the fact that there are different types of "infinity", or that you can sort them in terms of cardinality. Especially not with Einstein summation notation. I hate that bullshit.

I believe it. When I was younger I thought it would be a great idea to lick a lid like this from a potato chip dip container:



Sliced about an eighth of an inch deep gash in my tongue (I could split it open in the mirror), but somehow it only bled for about 30 seconds, and was fully healed the next day.
