      The error is in your lack of understanding what this Forum is for and so posting an utterly inappropriate message.

        Here:

        a(a-a)=(a+a)(a-a)
        a=a+a

        Division by zero in the intermediate step.

              Hey do you want to lend me $2000? If so just give us half of it now, that will mean I owe you $1000 and you owe me $1000 and that will mean we are even.

                I bet he hasn't looked behind the fridge; it's the last place anyone ever looks. Which (by definition) is where you always find what you are looking for, if you are going to. So...you should always start looking behind the fridge, and then give up.

                                    No but I am often called a banker at least I think that whats they say, it's always accompanied by a hand gesture which looks like somebody shaking a handful of spare change so it must be Banker.
