This letter equation was one of my earlier posts. At the time I submitted this I had less than 500 points, had never posted on the message boards, had not chatted to any other users in the chat room. Letter equations, by their very nature, sometimes contain trivial information, the no trivia rule I have always thought just meant no trivia questions, such as " who lived at 221b Baker Street?". I'm sure that if this bothers you that much you could always ask Jake about it. If Jake and the other level 2 editors agree with you I would be quite happy to have this deleted from the site and the points deducted.
sorry, i was having a bad day the day i posted this.
The little b gave this one away
I mis-read it and thought it said 22lb (pounds) that threw me a bit good teaser when I saw the answer though
