Re: New Thread! (not really):wq

His reply was not ignoring it.

Actually, this is a variation of the famous Kurt Godel conundrum of the
following two sentences:

    The following sentence is true.

    The preceding sentence is false.

Godel recognized that both of these could not be resolved logically. See
the book Godel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid by Douglas R
Hofstadter. It won an emmy. Hofstadter is also the one who wrote
Hofstader's Rule: "Everything takes longer than you think, even when you
take Hofstadter's Rule into account." It won a Murphy's Law corollary
competition in Omni magazine decades ago.
