   I always prove my claims you always dismiss them   
   with dogma and rhetoric utterly bereft of any of   
   any supporting reasoning like you just did.   
      
   int DD()   
   {   
    int Halt_Status = HHH(DD);   
    if (Halt_Status)   
    HERE: goto HERE;   
    return Halt_Status;   
   }   
      
   It is a verified fact that N steps of DD simulated   
   by HHH according to the semantics of the C programming   
   do prove a behavior pattern that cannot possibly reach   
   the "return" statement final halt state of DD in any   
   number of steps.
