the Russellian set (which gave so much grief to Frege's V ax)
is
the set of all set which aren't members of themselves.
Contradiction follows
(e.g. the set of all bananas isn't a banana, while the set of all non
finite set is itself non finte, hence it is --in naive set theory-- a
member of itself -- Russell avoided the naive "trap" with type theories)
