Ok, Jock, I can read Russell's Paradox, but I am still in the dark as to its meaning. Remember I have had 3 years of pure maths at ANU, imagine the people who have had high school maths. The paradox is gobbly gook.
I suspect it means how many number in the set of ordinals, let us say 100 for example, well then it actually has 101 elements including the zero element so is 101 an ordinal?
Welcome Deb, you will find this an ecelecitc(?) group with the odd curmudgeon like me.
