On self-reference, contradiction, and logic

I don't mind telling you, ebola... my head hurts slightly after reading your essay. Not your fault though... logic in a philosophical context always does that to me. I could relate pretty much all of what you said to either computer science (boolean logic) or maths (set theory), but the meta-ness of philosophy can be hard to grasp sometimes, no?
Also, the p's and not-p's being inverted wouldn't have made a difference, would they? Or were you having a litttle laugh?
 
I have a great deal of trouble thinking about it myself. Such is self-reference. :)
The p's and not p's weren't just inverted. Rather, all the not-p's appeared as p's, but the p's themselves displayed correctly. :)
