@leeloo that went over my head too.

@astrid if A is so good how come they never made a B DNS Record?

@leeloo @astrid On a piano, B# is the same as C, and E# is the same as F. But within music theory they are considered distinct notes, and can have different pitches in some contexts.

Old school pen lights, too. You get a good pen sized feel with these, while AAA (and AA) are too big

@dragonarchitect

And "A" was a battery size, big honker used in tube radios.
