Notes

1. Deliberate malapropisms are part of the Liverpool comedic scene--see ``malapudlianism'' in Lern Yerself Scouse, Fritz Spiegl, Frank Shaw and Stan Kelly, Scouse Press, Liverpool, UK, 1961.

2. The Unknowable, Gregory J. Chaitin, Springer-Verlag, 1999. For more nit-picking, see The Applicability of Mathematics as a Philosophical Problem, Mark Steiner, Harvard University Press, 1998.

3. Recall Graucho Marx: ``I wouldn't join the kind of club that would have me as a member''? Also Cole Porter's sublime ``In Spain, the best upper-sets do it...Lithuanians and Letts do it; Let's do it, let's fall in love...''
