Is that is the best PJ can do? Personal attacks are the last refuge
of
the incompetent.

That's been your ONLY attack.

I have, to the satisfaction of anyone competent in mathematics,
repeated
other's proofs that, despite PJ's objections, no list of reals can
contain all reals.

The NG is hardly "anyone competent in mathematics" that's why
Virgil is so well accepted.

In addition to the NG, there are all those textbooks and reference works
that agree that the Cantor "diagonal" proof is valid.

Which is where I found those proofs that P.J. does not accept.

Virgil babbles on and on...

Apparently PJ's eyes have gone bad and he can no longer make out my
words. Get somebody to read them to you. PJ.

And get them to read you a few works on logic and mathematics into the
bargain. Your ignorance is, at least theoretically, curable.
