1. one vowel one constant
2. since we're on the topic of states with the most water (which everybody got wrong ;)), they're abbreviations for states.

according to ATOT no but I say yes it is. For all purposes one can say it does.



All the smart people on ATOT agreed that the answer was yes, let's not count the dumb ones on ATOT as actual members of ATOT, as their contributions (if any) have no value.

although my man boobs have decreased since the south beach diet, I'd say I'm a AA cup.

:camera: 's :p

You DO realize that AA means that the measure around your bust is one inch less than the measure of the area directly under it? http://www.silkpeach.co.uk/size.html

Meaning you're shaped funny. You should be an A or so.



Please read carefully. If you are AA then you are on average 3.5 inches greater at the bust line than directly below the bust.

Come on don't disappoint this guy, it's not that hard. There's going to be some website that shows the mechanism. He kind of answered his own question by telling you the reactants (Ketal, H+ which is just any acid, and water).
