Hm, I don't know... Countably infinite, yes. But countably instant? Unless you mean something like lim_n->inf 1/n...

I wonder, if the Earth was overrun by zombies, would Mick Hucknall be the last human left? I have a theory that not even the zombies would want him, somehow.

You weren't wondering, but Zombie Bob is a VERY minor character from Season Two of the webcomic A Modest Destiny. Particularly obscure. I'm proud of it.
