“A Note on Naïve Set Theory in LP,” Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic 33 (1992) 422–432.
My first publication. It stems from work I did in my Honours year (1989) with Graham Priest, on paraconsistent logic. I explain a particularly simple yet powerful technique for constructing models of naïve set theory in the paraconsistent logic LP. This can be used to show the consistency of the theory, and to construct models invalidating some of the axioms of ZFC.

Contrariwise, if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t. That’s logic!
