Theorem: 1$ = 1c.
Proof:
And another that gives you a sense of money disappearing.
1$ = 100c
= (10c)^2
= (0.1$)^2
= 0.01$
= 1c
Here $ means dollars and c means cents. This one is scary in that I have seen PhD's
in math who were unable to see what was wrong with this one. Actually I am
crossposting this to sci.physics because I think that the latter makes a very nice
introduction to the importance of keeping track of your dimensions.
