Proof?

Yes, at first sight, naively, the universal dovetailing predicts white rabbits, 
or even white noise. But this is like forgetting the definition of the subject 
given (the Gödel-Löbian machines), and the fact that the thread in the 
Universal dovetailing is entirely structured by the nuance of provability 
imposed by incompleteness.

Then the math shows that we get a quantum logic for the 3p physics, another 
quantum logics for the 1p physics, and even (I was wrong in my original thesis) 
a quantum logic for the 1p-soul. Plotinus was right on this, the soul has 
already a foot in matter, even if that quantum logic is an intuitionist quantum 
logic.

If I belong to a normal history, for those arithmetical quantum logic,  where 
some people decide to remove a piece of my brain, the probability will be high 
that I will survive that lobotomic experience in the “continuum” of 
continuations which are executed in the sigma_1 arithmetic (equivalent to a 
universal dovetailing). 

And mechanism is not my theory. Nor is the G* theology, which is just the truth 
theory of all classical Löbian machine, as demonstrate by the work of Gödel, 
Löb and Solovay. I have not invented the intensional variants. ([]p & p) has 
been discovered by Goldblatt and Boolos, well studied by Artemov. And yes, I 
point on the existence of infinitely many others, some crucial to derive 
“Matter” from arithmetic in the manner prescribed by Mechanism (or, actually 
Neoplatonism).
