Hi Warren:

How about: Infinity is a distance that when focused on has more distant
objects possessing trivial circles of confusion.  So, it has trivial depth.

I suppose that one could theoretically have a lens long enough that infinity
would be beyond Earth's moon.  I wonder how long that lens would have to be
and if Saddam Hussian would buy it to convert it to a long range cannon?
