   Another claim without any evidence.   
      
   Olcott does not understand that his HHH does not see an infinite loop.   
   It aborts and halt, so the recursion is finite. But as soon Olcott sees   
   a one or two level recursions he starts to dream about a hypothetical   
   infinite recursion. For him, his dreams are facts, and he thinks that is   
   correct criteria for an infinite recursion pattern. So he programs his   
   HHH to aborts and to report non-halting. He forgets to count the many   
   conditional branch instructions when HHH is simulating itself.   
      
   void Finite_Recursion (int N) {   
    if (N > 0) Finite_Recursion (N - 1);   
    printf ("Olcott thinks this is never printed.\n");   
   }
