  • Another participant points out a potential misspelling in the expression "273=D K in Z D C," suggesting it should read "273=D K is Z D C."
  • There is a claim that "273 degrees Kelvin is zero degrees centigrade," although the context of this statement is not fully agreed upon.
  • Participants express a desire for more examples and clarification on the first equivalence presented.
  • One participant acknowledges a mistake in their previous message regarding the misspelling.

Here's how these work; 26=L in the A would be 26 letters in the alphabet,
12=N on a C would be 12 numbers on a Clock, and 1=the L N would be 1 the lonliest number.

Here they are;

10=A by L Z

273=D K in Z D C
