Obviously, logically the answer is yes. But if so, I feel a little disappointed. 1 - 0.999 (the other side of the asymptote) has always been my favourite number (though people look at me funny when I tell them that 
). It's like the other side of infinity. It reminds me of the infinite potential and possibility that can come from something infinitely small. "See the world in a grain of sand".
I tried to read a lot of that 0.999 - 1 thread, and it did seem as if mathematicians leaned towards it equaling 1. So does that mean that the asymptote terminates eventually? That it doesn't get "infinitely close", as I was always taught?
Damn, this is such a buzzkill, lol.
