I don't see how this / could fit into the equation. Is there such a formula? I've never seen one. :sleeping:

M = e/(c^2)

Thank you, John! In spite of the lower case it's understandable in context.

/ = division sign.

According to Google, the longest german word is "Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän" - Steamship Captain of an excursion boat company on the Donau river.

On automotive subjects, one of my favorites is the "Porsche Doppelkupplungsgetriebe", or as most know it, a PDK.
