Solution (?) to oldie but goodie
I couldn't follow the graphics that Tony Hanson used, but these types
of "proofs" always use a division by zero to make them work, i.e.,
something divided by 1-1 or a-a or a/a -1, etc. This always gives
an invalid answer. They are great for showing your kids that things
aren't always what they seem!
