Multiplying by 0 would give xero, but he said to use 0 0's. so s{*word*99}
them from the equasion.

1* anything is itself, so throw that away also. (or use it anyway if
it makes you feel better)

So we are left with:

22333.

223 * 3 * 3 = 2007.
Congratulations (and to Eddie). I was too dumb to work out what the

question was, let alone the answer.. and I am a person who fancies
himself at cryptic crosswords :-/

Thanks Dave.

You slipped up on one puzzle and now you feel you're too dumb? I don't think
so! :)
