He's already 'refuted' that in an earlier thread, by observing
that self-referential sentences are ill-formed and therefore
inadmissible. (At least, I think that's what he claimed.)

Check the thread from May this year, with title 'The liar paradox
is merely an ill-formed statement' in sci.logic.

Disclaimer: I've only glanced at a couple of posts in that
thread, so it's possible I'm mischaracterizing it. But
it looked pretty similar to much of the current discussion
about the halting problem in many ways.
