   "true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"   
   expressions of language are defined in terms of other   
   expressions of language thus truth is computed on the   
   basis of relations between finite strings.

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

              This required establishing a new foundation
