   This is merely your own utterly profound ignorance   
   of this specific topic.   
      
   ?- LP = not(true(LP)).   
   LP = not(true(LP)).   
   ?- unify_with_occurs_check(LP, not(true(LP))).   
   false.   
      
   This is the final and complete total resolution   
   of the Liar Paradox conclusively proving that it   
   was never grounded in any notion of truth.

              My 28 year goal has been to make
       "true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
       reliably computable.

              This required establishing a new foundation
