P = "Earth is the third planet from the sun."
Q = "The moon is made of green cheese."
We determine that P is true on the basis empirical facts.
We determine that Q is false on the basis empirical facts.
Is P ∨ Q true? Yes.

I am not eliminating disjunction.
I eliminate disjunction introduction into
a chain of reasoning from out of nowhere.

Parry’s Analytic Implication: Developed by William Parry
does this same thing.

Have you ever heard of relevance logic?
They kept Disjunction introduction and got
rid of Disjunctive syllogism

Copyright 2026 Olcott

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).

So you agree that because P is true and Q is false, the condition "at 
least one of the following" is met.

Next step:

Do you believe the following statement is true or false, and how do you 
come to that conclusion?

--------------------------------------
At least one of the following statements is true:
- Earth is the third planet from the sun.
- There is a Walmart bag at the deepest point of the Mariana Trench.

Clearly just head games. GFO with these head games

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).

I promise you I am going somewhere with this, and this is no head game. 
But we must take things one small step at a time.

So I'll ask again:

Do you believe the following natural language statement is true or 
false, and how do you come to that conclusion?

--------------------------------------
At least one of the following statements is true:
- Earth is the third planet from the sun.
- There is a Walmart bag at the deepest point of the Mariana Trench.

In other words, you know this line of questioning will prove you wrong 
and you can't handle it.

This constitutes your admission that Disjunction introduction is valid.

The main and distinctive feature of PAI (and of the
many systems of analytic implication belonging to its
ilk) is the rejection of the classically valid
principle of Addition, sometimes also referred
to as Disjunction Introduction.

In other words, the principle leading from a formula
ϕ to a disjunction of the form ϕ ∨ ψ, where ψ is
an arbitrary formula. Parry blamed on this principle
the derivability of the paradoxes of strict implication.

How about answering my question?  In your system are all facts axioms, or
are they not?

Unlikely.  I suggest to you yet again, converting all "atomic facts"
(whatever they may be) to axioms will not result in a satisfactory or
useful system.

Why do you bother responding to me?  You don't answer my points and
questions.  I wasn't talking about "atomic facts", I was talking about
"empirical facts", and what that term means to you.

OK, let's run now with your "atomic facts".  What is an "atomic fact" in
your system?  You've given a (non-interesting) example, but no
definition.  What properties would a fact need to be regarded as
"non-atomic"?  That it could somehow be split into two or more distict
facts, or what?  Would Gödel's Theorem be regarded as an "atomic fact" or
a "non-atomic fact"?  And why?  It must be one or the other.

It makes "true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"

I just found the term:
"grounding in a proof theoretic atomic base" yesterday.
Prior to yesterday I had no idea how close PTS already
is to my own system.

Vacuously so.  If all facts are axioms, there is nothing left to prove.
Of course, in this setup, determining if an assertion is an axiom or not
is an insoluble problem.

Maybe you mean something else by "atomic fact".  You're clearly unable or
unwilling to define that term.  Obviously you either don't understand it,
or you need to keep it vague to avoid being pinned down by logic and
reality.

> I just found the term:

You can find any number of terms.  That doesn't mean you're capable of
understanding them.

> Prior to yesterday I had no idea how close PTS already
> is to my own system.

You're clueless about PTS.  You can't explain it, you don't understand
it.  You just like trying to flummox others by throwing around big words
and recondite phrases.  When asked to explain what they mean, you just go
all vague.  "Your own system" is vacuous nonsense.

The above is the key reason why under PTS Gödel 1931
incompleteness fails. If they are mere gibberish words
to you then you will not understand.

If you know essentially nothing about PTS then when
I explain things using the terminology of PTS you will
not understand. I need to go to university today to
pick up a key PTS paper.

The reason Gödel 1931 incompleteness fails is because you flock to it 
like a popular A-ha song that we as frequent listeners have heard too 
often. While you are humming, "Take on me" and lightning hits you and 
fires across your shiny steel braces, we are just filling our ears with 
old socks and cotton if we can find it while waiting for the radio to 
cue up another song.

 From what I hear the only thing universities get right these days is 
STEM mathematics, far beneath your coveted PTS topologies and iso propyl 
alcohol fawning and frantic rubbing, as if it were a magic lantern. 
Admit it, you are a fanboi for higher mathematical logic even if you 
don't understand a word of it.

I don't believe you.  You have no respect for or understanding of the
truth.  If you really want to persuade anybody that PTS somehow causes
Gödel's theorem not to hold, then cite an academic expert who'll have
some credibility.

> If they are mere gibberish words to you then you will not understand.

You don't understand Proof-theoritic Semantics, and you certainly don't
understand Gödel's Theorem, neither the theorem itself nor any proof of
it.

My lack of understanding of and lack of desire to understand PTS is not
in question.  It is YOU that is pretending to understand it, lying that
you understand it, yet you are incapable of explaining the most basic of
its terminology.

You are being nauseatingly supercilious, purporting to be an expert in
PTS, something you know next to nothing about.

It is a verified fact that Gödel's G is ungrounded
in the atomic base of PA. That you do not understand
what: "grounded in the atomic base" means is less
than no rebuttal at all.

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).

"grounded in the atomic base of PA" is an expression used only by you, 
and it is one which you have never explicitly defined, so the fault here 
certainly doesn't lie with Alan. It's certainly not a 'verified fact' 
when you haven't even adequately explained what it is that you mean.

All of knowledge expressed in language is structured as a tree of 
semantic relations specified syntactically between finite strings.

I am working in anchoring all of the relevant details
of "grounded in the atomic base" in quotes from
published papers.

'all knowledge expressed in language' isn't even a well-defined set. It 
is at best a fuzzy set. And it certainly isn't structured as a tree.

When you get around to doing that let us know. Until you do so talking 
about things being "grounded in the atomic base of PA" is essentially 
meaningless.

Adapting the system recently created by Kristen Welker
in her interview of Trump:

One-two punch that destroys Liars
#WhatIsTheEvidenceOfThat
#ThatIsNotEvidence
Around and around until they are defeated

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/read-transcript-president-donald-trump-interviewed-nbc-news-meet-press-rcna348508 
   2026-06-07

Trump didn't have anything besides dishonest dodges when
she kept pressing his for evidence of election fraud so
he gave up and left the room.

What is the specific concrete counter-example of an edge case of
