Lightman's piece explores the dichotomies of infinite life spans. Would you do nothing now if you were to live forever and had time to do it later? Or, would you do everything now because you had time to master everything? What about a family/social network that expanded infintely? Would you celebrate the infinite relatives who are eager to share an opinion on your latest pursuit? Or, would you be crushed that all you sought to do had already been done by those living infinitely before you?
