Randomly pick a real number between 0 and 1. What is the probability that the number is a fraction, such as 1/4? Would you believe that the probability is zero? Probe this and other mind-bending facts about infinite sets, including the discovery that made Cantor exclaim, "I see it, but I don't believe it!"
