Regular Rings are Very Regular

Extract
The following problem arose in a conversation with Abraham Zaks: “Suppose R is an associative ring with identity such that every finitely generated left ideal is generated by idempotents. Is R von-Neumann regular?” In the literature the “s” in “idempotents” is missing, and is replaced by “an idempotent”. The answer is, “Yes!”
