   If it takes you 22 years to think you have eliminated gaps in your   
   reasoning about something very simple that undergraduates "get" in one   
   or two lectures, don't you think maybe that's a red flag?!

   The Liar Paradox points to its own syntax and claims that it is a   
   falsehood. It refers to nothing external; and no point of view can   
   pin down its truth value.   
      
   The Halting question refers to something outside of itself, for which   
   there is always a right answer.   
      
   It would really behoove you to quit harping about the Liar Paradox   
   already.   
      
   It's really just something for entertaining children, not befitting   
   of eudite dialog among intellectuals.
