Hello everyone.

Upon searching for research papers concerning the field of metamathematics, I discovered, quite serendipitously, a mathematical curiosity that I think deserves the attention of the people of Wrong Planet. I found a tiny programming language -- called Metamath -- that serves the purpose of checking and producing logical/mathematical proofs. I clicked on the link to the main Metamath website, and found the program, compiled it, and am viewing it using QT. There is so much I could tell you, but I'm going to save myself a lot of typing and formulating sentences by providing you with the Wikipedia page for Metamath, as well as the Metamath website.

That is pretty cool, thanks!

Checked out your website too, really cool to see someone else into Gregory Chaitin.

I am studying philosophy, but am pretty much interested in everything you list. I am studying philosophy because it has a real potential to be cross disciplinary and guide research in places where scientists are really confused, eg, Consciousness.
