Must have been a really fast worker. I know you can cover half the
distance to a tortoise in an arbitrarily small time, but even there
we're
dealing with a countable infinity. How much time does it take to be

anyway?

Wrongness travels instantaneously (via massless particles called
wronguns),

while truth travels at a finite and rather slow speed,
basically the speed of publication.

That's not cricket, sir...

And he's not correct either. At least not in the US. Here
truth travels at the speed it takes somebody to read it. And
that involves a lot of lip movement and the looking up of
big words.

It's a lot easier if you have googgle.
