   I explained that a nested simulation tower is two dimensional.   
      
   One dimension is the simulation level, the nesting itself;   
   that goes out to infinity. Due to the aborting behavior of HHH,   
   it is not actually realized in simulation; we have to step   
   through the aborted simulations to keep it going.   
      
   The other dimension is the execution /within/ the simulations.   
   That can be halting or non-halting.   
      
   In the HHH(DD) simulation tower, though that is infinite,   
   the simulations are halting.   
      
   I said that before. Your memory of that has vaporized, and you have now   
   focused only on my statement that the simluation tower is infinite.   
      
   The depth of the simulation tower, and the halting of the simulations   
   within that tower, are independent phenomena.   
      
   A decider must not mistake one for the other.
