In ZF, and most other set theories in which the set of all naturals is allowed, the uncountability of the set of all subsets of the set of naturals is provable.

Quite so, at least outside WMytheology. > 3) Every real number has at least one unique representation as an > infinite binary string (some rationals have even two representations > but that's peanuts).
But nothing guarantees that one can always find such a decimal or binary representation.

That some reals are inaccessible is well known.

Without loss of information the FISs of uncountably many binary strings, if equal, need not be written twice.

Since WM's misunderstandings of of a Complete Infinite Binary Tree are pervasive and apparently incorrectable, from here on WM's stuff is even more junky than usual. --
