Not really. I mean, if you think of 2+2 equalling 5 that doesn't mean that there's a dimension where this is true, and if these alternate dimensions don't include an alternet set of laws of physics then there's a whole pile of things that would still be impossible (with this "youth potion" likely being among them, especially with the technology available during Hitler's lifetime.)
But, that would just be changing the names of the numbers not the value. Like if you switched the symbol for 2 to 3 then yes 1+1=3, but it is still 2 in value. PICTURES!!!!
+:) =:) = (What ever symbol you chose 3 ,4, 5, 39838, Ect) but the number value of the smile faces stay the same.Which normally will be represented by a 2
Numbers weren't invented, per se, they're just a concept. They're a way of keeping track of a number of things. No matter how you count, you have to use the "concept" of numbers. If instead of 1, 2, 3 it was A, B, C, correspondingly, then A would still be the "concept" of one. It's the number given to a single object. And 1 is just a symbol used to represent this idea.
I saw no success in any of the above say... ten posts. This is the awesome SUCCESS thread! Not the mildly amusing but eventually annoying DEBATE thread.
I successfully negotiated the price of my apartment down 50 dollars a month! Woot! We'll have a two bedroom, two story, 1 and a half bath apartment for 625 per month, water, sewer, trash, snow and lawn, and hot water included.

Jesus, I'm paying $835 per month for a 1 room studio. Utilities not included.
I saw Iron Man earlier today. It is the epitome of success, and I am more successful for having seen it.
I get to see free movies at the local theater, thanks to something very catchy that I coined, "having a job at the movie theater." So, seeing Iron Man is just a pasttime for me, really. An awesome success for me would be sitting through every showing in one of the theaters while receiving theater dome.
I got my T4 head, leg, and shoulder armor from raiding this weekend, and my guild downed Gruul for the first time. Anyone who plays WoW should see that this is awesome.
I am currently in a 5-Star hotel in DC for this marketing event for work! Everything is paid for, food, amenities, travel, own room, etc. It's like a vacation!
Except I have to work.
Also, I have been awake for... about 30 hours now, and I have slept in dazed 15 minute chunks for a collective one hour on my trip here. By traversing the globe, I somehow found the secret for ignoring sleep! That is truly success!
But just to be safe, I should go to bed, I have to represent my company in about 6 hours

Also, 2+2 could very easily equal 5 even in this dimension, you would just have to redesign math or reorder numerals.

Oh well. It was a good company while it lasted.
Especially considering the conference has an open bar every night.
