Hi,

    I ran across the following:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarski%27s_indefinability_theorem

*"Tarski's undefinability theorem*, stated and proved by Alfred Tarski <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_Tarski> in 1936, is an important limitative result in mathematical logic <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_logic>, the foundations of mathematics <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_mathematics>, and in formal semantics <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantics>. Informally, the theorem states that /arithmetical truth cannot be defined in arithmetic/."

    Where then is it defined?

Onward!

Stephen
