On a finite axiomatization of the data type L

In the October '77 issue of SIGPLAN Notices Mile Majster [Ma77] discusses various alternatives to specifications of abstract data types, deliberates on the 'Limits of the "Algebraic" Specification of Abstract Data Types', and presents an example which she claims cannot be finitely axiomatised using algebraic specification techniques alone. It is the purpose of this note to make a conditional counter to this claim.
