I think this is actually more like trying to force a square peg into a round hole. ELEVENTWO? What the hell is that? I hope this isn't the only thing Dmitri Borgmann is known for.
@Brian - ELEVENTWO are the letters of ELEVEN and TWO, from which the letters of ONE are then subtracted to generate LEVETW. This is very clever, though you may not perceive the achievement. Hint: try to do this with the letters of any other numberical calculation.

ReplyDelete"eleven plus two" is an anagram of "twelve plus one", just like the numbers 11 + 2 = 12 + 1.
