Can anyone on this list state - and cite! - a theorem to the effect that
to any recursively axiomatisable theory $T$ in a language $L$ there is a
finitely axiomatisable theory $T'$ in a suitable language $L'$ with $T'$
equivalent to $T'$ in some very strong sense. Somebody must have proved
a rigorous version of this, and I am hoping that listmembers will know
who and how.
