   void Infinite_Recursion()   
   {   
      Infinite_Recursion();   
   }   
      
   void Infinite_Loop()   
   {

   Sure and we know that you are correct because the   
   correct simulation of Infinite_Recursion() and   
   Infinite_Loop() would eventually reach their "return"   
   statement and terminate normally if we just wait   
   long enough.
