   It is not that your explanation doesn't work.   
   It is that it ignores the root cause of why   
   G is unprovable in F.   
      
   If you disagree then provide a correct   
   proof that you yourself never existed.   
      
   If you can't see how this is impossible   
   you must by very dumb.   
      
   Since you have proved that you are quite   
   smart then any disagreement would most   
   likely be a lie, a mere head game.

              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
