Trying to Decypher Christopher Langen's Paper

I mentioned Christopher Langen in the last post. His paper on CTMU contains many large words that are not used in a straight forward context. The abstract of his paper is particularly dense. It contains the word supertautological which seems to be a neologism. However, he does define it here.

A supertautology is universal, which is to say that it includes everything. It is self-referential and it is metalogical. I suppose that what he is getting at is that a theory of everything must include perception and logic as well as itself.

Fortunately the paper itself is only fifty pages long and is considerably less dense than the abstract.
