This thread is funny.

Mentioned in this thread before:
"1) A = B First statement
2) A^2 = AB Multiply both sides by A
3) A^2-B^2=AB-B^2 Subtract B^2 from both sides
4) (A+B)(A-B)=B(A-B) Factor both sides
5) A+B=B Divide both sides by (A-B)
6) 2B=B Since A=B we can replace A with B
7) 2=1 Divide both sides by B"

Why are we dividing by B at the end? I would have taken B off. so B=0, A=B so A = 0.

That's also invalid; everything after step 5 is nonsense.
