Every Turing machine/input pair has an execution sequence (term invented
by me. Richard and Mikko surely understand the idea.).
It never has more than one.
Every sequence is finite or infinite.
The halting problem asks: Is this Turing machine/input pair's execution
sequence finite?

Olcott does not understand this and ignored this the last time I
mentioned it, which proves dishonesty.

You had mail, but the super-user read it, and deleted it!
