Make sure not to step on any errant blood stains before we find our LIFE EXTINGUSHER.

At least one, I suppose. I can define a Lebesgue measure on it which would be uncontroversial.

I honestly can't get good numbers on that! I am going to estimate no, but it's entirely possible. Greenland isn't so big.

Yes, in at least a couple of senses.

That depends on your perspective. So far, I have generally been treating it as if the answer is yes, answering the questions as they apply to its matter content. However, there are other models coexisting in my brain that define it differently.
