The exponential models of radioactive decay and capacitor discharge predict
infinite lifetimes. There is always charge left; there is always un-decayed
matter left. We know that is not so! I cannot imagine presenting this model
without a full discussion of the logical origins, implications, etc of this
absurd mathematical statement. Can we (should we) use a better model? . . .
etc.
