   The Halting problem is an incorrect ques

   The halting problem  a self-contradictory thus incorrect question   
   when posed to termination analyzer H with input D.   
      
   When posed to termination analyzer H1 with input D the question has a   
   different meaning thus is a different question.   
      
   Linguistics understands that the same word-for-word question can   
   have an entirely different meaning based on the linguistic   
   context of who is asked.   
      
   As a concrete example the question:   
   "Are you a little girl?"   
   has different correct answers depending on who is asked.   
      
   H and H1 and D are shown in this source-code
