I actually solved this problem years ago. If P = NP, you can factor out the common factor of P from both sides of the equation, getting 1 = N. Since clearly 1 ≠ N, it follows that P ≠ NP.

Somehow my brilliant solution to this problem was never recognized by the "authorities", and I continue to toil away as a solitary genius, solving one difficult problem after another.
