The big program with the KR of AI is that the meaning
of words is defined by the meaning of the words that
they are defined by on and on recursively to great depth.
This is what I mean by the term "limits", "limitation", and
"limited", the meaning behind their meaning.
The original Halting Problem actually boils down to
an analytical impossibility. If analytical impossibility
and limit meant exactly the same thing, then there
would be no need for speed limit signs. People could
not break a limit that is also an analytical impossibility.
SPEED LIMIT 186,000 miles per second
(According to Einstein no one breaks this speed limit)
