Hiya, Doctor.

 *>It is really a pity that no one so far has properly defined terms such as
 *>'infinite', 'well-formed formula', 'consistent', 'complete', 'first order

Cooter doesn't like to mess with that stuff.  It stifles his creative abilities.  
;)

He prefers to work with analogies and ignore the resultant errors.

 *>However, I question what this discussion, as you call it, is doing on this

Cooterism:  I've proved that you should post on newsgroups where the topic of 
your post would be off topic.  ;)

That, and he popped in here thinking we were a bunch of ignorant and gullible 
souls whom he could impress by his assertions.  

And threating some of us with Hell.  That ticked me off.  ;)

 *>It is worthy of juvinile Sci-Fi.

Sure it's juvenile.  But harmless.  You can always filter us if we annoy you too 
much.

You're certainly welcome to correct me if I make a mistake.  Don't bother with 
trying to correct Cooter though.  He'll just ignore you.  ;)
