I actually read that one!

Quite a while ago, so I don't remember much about it except the concept that you can't prove everything within a system by what's in the system.

I do recall it being quite a brain-twister, but I enjoy that kind of thing.

The book that keeps 'beating' me is Moby Dick. I really, really, really do not like the characters. Maybe someday I'll make another run at it.
