In A Little While Dear

In response to the question, "Just how long is 'In a little while', I must give my definition as this:

Since it is a "little" while, it obviously has a quantitative value, therefore it is not an infinite while.

While I am thinking about it, since it is a "little" while, it is therefore not the biggest or maximum while.

If we restrict our thinking to big and little whiles, then we can assume that it is at least less than or equal to a while that falls exactly between a big while and a little while, therefore a little while is only at the most half the size of a big while, that is, [ little while <= 1/2 big while ]

Now at least we have limited a little while to the lowest half of possible whiles.

While this may seem somewhat of a wily answer at least you can be somewhat assured that while you are contemplating awhile about a while, that it only took a little while because if it had taken a big while then you probably would have gotten bored in a little while and wondered again about the whiles and wherefores of the answer and therefore taken twice as long wondering about the wherefores too. That would have taken quite a while.
