   I have showed that the conventional proofs of the halting problem   
   do not prove undecidability. It is reported that there are other   
   unconventional proofs. Ben mentioned one of them.   
      
   int Sipser_D()   
   {   
      if (HHH(Sipser_D) == 1)   
        return 0;   
      return 1;   
   }   
      
   The proof that recursively enumerable languages are not   
   recursive seems to fall into the same trap that I derived.
