Either that or a moon.

Does "states a falsehood when preceded by its quotation" state a falsehood when preceded by its quotation?

As a silly question? Sure. As a mathematically interesting question? Maybe not so much.

How many questions posted on this page so far do not refer to themselves?

Well sonny, see to solve your predicament you have to integrate sec (pronounced seek) y dy from zero to a sixth of pi. You will notice that it is the log, base e, of the square root of three multiplied by the sixty-fourth power of.... (static noises)

Transmission fail?

int 0..pi/6 sec(y) dy = ln(3)/2 = ln(sqrt(3)) = ln(sqrt(3)*1) = ln(sqrt(3)*64/64)
Source: WolframAlpha
So the bit that was cut off by the transmission fail would have to be equal to 64.

Did I overcomplicate that?

Maybe? Let's see....
int 0..pi/6 sec(y) dy = ln(3)/2 = ln(sqrt(3)) = ln(sqrt(3)*1) = ln(sqrt(3)*1^64)
So with the revised transmission, the cut off part can only equal 1, -1, i, -i, or any of sixty other complex numbers of the form cos(k*pi/32) + i*sin(k*pi/32), where k is an integer.

Math, yay?
