for those who do not get it, this is a reference to the ideal gas law pV = nRT the fact that at constant pressure and temperature the same number of gas molecules (ideal gas) will take the same Volume.

    Thanks, I immediately recognized it as a formula but couldn't remember what it was for (in my defense, the last time it was relevant to me was about 15 years ago when I studied electrical engineering).

    You can have non-alphanumeric characters on license plates? What do the cops do if they need to catch you? Do they put out an APB for emoticons?

    Like the guy with the NULL plate who got all the tickets for which no number could be found.

    I read an article once about a guy who got a NO PLATE licence plate and ended up being automatically blamed whenever a cop wrote in that a car had no licence plate. I wonder what 0X00000 would do.

    Use the cyrillic letter А on your licence plate instead of the latin letter A. All your speeding tickets would be mailed to someone else

    I don't think you can? But, you can use a space and add an equal sign sticker instead

    Would be even better if the capitalization was correct. Always bugs me when people capitalize units wrong, but in this case it might have been mandatory.

    You saying this reminded me of my mom's old custom plate she had when she was a nurse. She had XOX PRN, which would mean "hugs and kisses, take as needed" on a prescription. A gas station attendant made a comment about her loving porn once and she ended up getting rid of it.
