"most of the mathematical systems I deal with aren’t complete enough for Godels theorem to bite us"
Sorry Michael but I would bet you deal with mathematical systems that have at least Peano arithmetic, which is enough for GT to be operative.
I also think 'all messages go to /dev/null' would actually be A and that Heisenbergs Uncertainty Principle says elections fly all over the place.

Excuse me, that should read Heisenbergs Uncertainty Principle does not say elections fly all over the place.
