The number 0.999999...... eventually equals the number 1
Let X = 0.999999......
10X = 9.999999......
10X - X = 9
(10 - 1)X = 9
9X = 9
X = 1
Yay.

Hehehe. Neat. There's also one where you pseudo-prove 1=0 using a quatratic equation... can't remember what it was, though. Oh well.
Do you happen to know why that equation doesn't come out correctly? I'd be curious.
