So how about having a little bit of fun...
x = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + ...
2x = 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + 64 + ...
2x - x = x = (2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + ...) - (1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + ...) = -1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ... = -1
1 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + ... = -1?
x = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + ...
2x = 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + 64 + ...
2x - x = x = (2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + ...) - (1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + ...) = -1 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ... = -1
1 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + ... = -1?
