Ok, check this one out. It's hard to pick out the subtle discrepancy, but if you hover over the comic, you'll get a text box that gives you a clue.
I thought it was fun. I tried it with a few other numbers, and I found that it's true for n and n squared: n x (n^2) = x

Shawn,
I was just contacted by you -- but FROM THE FUTURE. You said to tell you, "Nobody likes a math geek, Sculley." I have no idea what you meant.
You also said to warn you not to miss next Saturday or the Earth would 'something something something' I didn't want to turn down the TV so didn't catch all of it.
Oh and thirty years from now, don't call collect you cheap bastard.
I just realized that the actual equation should be n x n^2 = n^3, not x!
