Theorem 9p10ne21fool

Description: 9 + 10 equals 21. This astonishing thesis lives as a meme on the internet, and may be believed by quite some people. At least repeated requests to falsify it are a permanent part of the story. Prof. Loof Lirpa did not rest until he finally came up with a computer verifiable mathematical proof, that only a fool can think so.
