I'm not attempting to do anything that even *resembles* infinite descent. Why do you think I am? CFJ 2737 is irrelevant here, because I am not attempting to take any actions that are related to infinity in any way. Yes, the word "Foo" is defined as calling a CFJ containing the word "Foo". Why is that significant at all? The phrase "Strawberry Fields Forever" is defined as a specific song whose lyrics contain the phrase "strawberry fields forever". Does that mean that "Strawberry Fields Forever" is an infinite song? I'm simply defining, and then using, a shorthand for two completely well-defined, well-determined, and finite actions, which do not in any way refer to or contain themselves or each other. I am doing nothing but calling (at most) three CFJs, the text of each of which can easily be written out in full. Allow me to demonstrate: I call a CFJ on the statement "I have already called a CFJ in this message. (Foo)". I call a CFJ on the statement "I have already called a CFJ in this message. (Bar)". I call a CFJ on the statement "I have already called a CFJ in this message. (Plaz)". Are you happy now? —Machiavelli
