Dreaming again of a HHH that does not abort.
HHH does abort, therefore it does not wait long enough, but there is no 
way to correct it. Waiting longer is not a solution. There is no 
solution. HHH cannot possibly simulate itself correctly up to the end.
How many times and in how many different way must this be repeated 
before olcott understands this?
