A couple of people have written to me remarking that Bryan Ford's abstract 
does not mention the inconsistency of ZF.

That's true, but if you turn to the end of the paper, you will see the 
claim.  Evidently, the author realized the sensational nature of his claim 
and the possibility of having made an error, and decided not to trumpet it
in the abstract or the introduction.
