   void P()   
   {   
    if H(P) // returns 1 for halts 0 for loops   
    HERE: goto HERE;   
   }   
      
   For *any* decider H and input P   
   If H says halts then P loops   
   If H says loops then P halts   
   Making this HP diagonal case unsatisfiable.   
      
   Finally a simple way to say it that uses terms exactly correctly.
