Knowledge
Crommy
Given a couple of off-topic postings towards what you know and that you'd like to share, I though a thread actually here to post questions or fascinating info and knowledge would be nice - basically, anything you find interesting, have been taught or want to know that you'd like to share, please do it here.

To kick start, here's a few quotes which I think sum up my views on this thread and why I'd like it here Wink

"Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe."
- H. G. Wells (1866-1946)

"You can only find truth with logic if you have already found truth without it."
- Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936)

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible."
- Walt Disney (1901-1966)

"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
- Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)

"There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life."
- Frank Zappa

I'm not sure this is what this thread is about, but I'd like you to look at this:

The Cuban authorities have finally aprehended the man who killed Che Guevara.

Under Castro's orders, they.........................took him to the hospital, put him under surgery and cured the cataracts that had made him blind. They then returned him to where he was living.

in that case, here's something to (hopefully) tie your brain up in a knot:

imagine any three numbers. any numbers at all. and to prove that they can be any numbers at all, let's call them "a", "b" and "c". those numbers must be such that a+b=c

now:

a+b=c <=> a+b-c=0

considering that (logically and very obviously) a = 2a-a and b=2b-b and also that c=2c-c
we get:

a+b-c=0 <=> (2a-a)+(2b-b )-(2c-c)=0 <=> 2a-a+2b-b-2c+c=0 <=> 2a+2b-2c = a+b-c <=> 2(a+b-c)=a+b-c <=> 2(a+b-c)=1(a+b-c) <=> 2=1

if this looks complicated, look at it again. it's actually quite simple Smile



How is this possible - is there anything wrong with it, cos I can't see anything wrong with it - it's just plain scary being a mathmatician of sorts Shock

it's disappeared for some reason. weird. a very specific part of your sig was part of your post, along with an image that wasn't working. maybe a weird forum glitch, something to do with CrueTrue messing with the new youtube stuff?

anyway, if a+b=c, then a+b-c=0

so 2(a+b-c)=1(a+b-c) <=> 2*0=1*0, so you can't just divide both by (a+b-c) as that would be dividing by zero, so that step can't be taken Wink

(the final step)
