 I must be missing something: [...]
 [1] = a gallon of water out of an infinite pool
[2] = another gallon of water out of an infinite pool
[3] = on and on... taken to infinity...
 The pool would always have infinite water for this process?

Assume that the H2O molecules in the pool are "numerated" by 1, 2, 3, ... (i.e. that ALL H2O molecules in the pool are "numerated" by natural numbers).
Taking out the "infinite amount of H2O molecules" numerated by 1, 2, 3, ... would lead to an EMPTY pool.
On the other hand, taking out the "infinite amount of H2O molecules" numerated by 2, 4, 6, ... would not drain the pool. 😛 It would still be filled (sort of) with infinitely many H20 molecules. 😛
Be aware if the infinite, man!
