   Turing machines in general can only compute mappings   
   from their inputs. The halting problem requires computing   
   mappings that in some cases are not provided in the   
   inputs therefore the halting problem is wrong.   
      
   Blah, Blah Blah, no Olcott you are wrong, I know   
   that you are wrong because I simply don't believe you.
