        Do you mean $0 + 10^9 i or are you inferring some relation to Euler’s formula?

      They’ve already started building the hotel, but they’ve got a way to go.

        No, the ones that says we shouldn’t trust scientists and doctors, not realizing the alternative would be to check and prove every single thing before believing it.

          In my experience, those people don’t go around questioning things. They just pick somebody to believe and make them their messiah or something.
