The answer, therefore, is that an infinity of angels can be located on the head of a pin, since they do not occupy any space there.

Thank you, Dorothy L Sayer - however, it is also theorised that it is dependent on the assumed mass of the angels, with a maximum number of 8.6766*10exp49 angels at the critical angel mass (3.8807*10exp-34 kg); while this approach does produce an upper bound on the possible density of angels, it is based on the Thomist assumption of non-overlap.
Since angels can be presumed to obey quantum rules when packed at quantum gravity densities, the uncertainty relation will cause their wave functions to overlap significantly even if there is a strong degeneracy pressure. If the non-overlap assumption is relaxed, this approach cannot derive an upper bound.

This thread is seriously in danger of becoming intellectual. Off topic, but seriously intellectual.

A reminder: The Topic is the 4-10MBit upgrade, please stick to it!

Same situation in Harrogate as we are listed alongside Leeds.

I wouldnt at all be surprised if we get listed as delayed as with only 2 days left theres a stong chance we wont see any change.

Was told be a techbloke in his VM van locally that the network is a bit of a mess round here.

[fugu]

well, according to there "even faster" webpage they have 2 days to complete 9 upgrade areas. Who is feeling optimistic?

[Noob91]

Sounds like a stupid question but how can you tell what area you're in? The Where's my Upgrade page doesn't list my area, Waltham Forest.

That is correct about the UBR.

that's the uBr
