Thank you for this remark, Hal. Indeed, you mentioned very similar
ideas:

"List of all properties: The list of all possible properties
objects can have. The list can not be empty since there is at least
one object: A Nothing. A Nothing has at least one property -
emptiness. The list is most likely at least countably infinite and
is assumed herein to be so. Any list can be divided into two
sub-lists - the process of defining two objects - a definitional
pair. The set of all possible subsets of the list is a power set and
therefore uncountably infinite. Therefore there are uncountably
infinite objects."

But your theories are much more complex than that if my first
impression is correct. Sooner or later, I'll give attention to them in
more detail.

This list really is a rich source of unconventional ideas! Since I'm
new in the list, I am always thankful if someone refers me to
interesting earlier discussions where I can read up on several topics.
