a+b=c
4a-3a+4b-3b=4c-3c
4a+4b-4c=3a+3b-3c
4(a+b-c)=3(a+b-c)
4=3
This is another of the "divide by zero" errors. It's alright up until the last two lines, where he divides by zero. Basically, we're given a + b = c, so:
a + b = c
a + b - c = c - c (subtract c from both sides)
a + b - c = 0
So the second to last line can be written:
4(0) = 3(0)
Which is true, 0 = 0. However, he then divides out the 0, coming up with:
4 = 3
So that's why 4 = 3 at the end - because of the division by 0. Yay.

Things you don't know about me:
My mother died when I was 12
My father was a minister
I was an atheist for a while until I learned more about science and philosophy
I actually consider the Buddy Christ to be a religious object and consider it one of the highest compliments I can give to God...
Oh, yeah, and I'm co-designer of a roleplaying system (Hallways and Hand Grenades; look for its debut at I-CON 2004)

Things you didn't know about me (and probably dont care about):
I have been an uncle since the age of thirteen. My nephew was born whilst I was on holiday in Prague, and I had to pay AUS$5 for ten minutes internet to find out.
My mediocrity in C++ is matched only by my abundant threats to use it.
My aluminium hat never has a chance to get cold

I could do it with 8000 monkeys and 43 typewriters.
I'm more outspoken online than in real life
I don't know if I have a crush or if its more deep than that

I'm currently in love with a guy who has a GIRLfriend. It's an interesting situation.
I never wear tanktops unless there's something on over it (a long-sleeved shirt, for instance).
Edit: whoops...nono, he's not homosexual...
