The challenge - come up with a chemical compound that can be written with 7 numbers/letters total. The more obscure the better, of course. Bonus points and special consideration for anything that will make co-workers chuckle, while making the DOT blush if they knew what it was.

How strict is your state about…subtle…modifications to a plate? I mean, when Alaska had a standing grizzly on thier plate, a number of us took Magic Markers to it and turned him into Smokey the Bear. The state let it slide. The reason: Get a plate that is C space H space N space O, then use small applique numbers to add the subscript. Most cops would approve.
