A Proof That 2 = 1
X = Y Given X^2 = XY Multiply both sides by X X^2 - Y^2 = XY - Y^2 Subtract Y^2 from both sides (X+Y)(X-Y) = Y(X-Y) Factor both sides (X+Y) = Y Cancel out common factors Y+Y = Y Substitute in from line 1 2Y = Y Collect the Y's 2 = 1 Divide both sides by Y

Cheap oil. It's worth it!

A classic :) It must have been 7 or 8 years since I last saw it, I'm sure that its much much older. Took me a while to figure out. --- Arguing on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded.

Bah, wish I was good at maths so I could work at puzzles like this. Simon I need your clothes, your boots, and your copy of VS.NET. Sonork ID 100.10024
